[R] Question

[Spencer Graves]

	  1.  I could find no references to "var.ran" with 
RSiteSearch("var.ran") and when requesting "var.ran" from S-Plus 6.2.

	  2.  Have you considered "simulate.lme"?

	  3.  Are you familiar with Pinheiro and Bates (2000) Mixed-Effects 
Models in S and S-Plus (Springer)?  I highly recommend this book.
