Nick Cox has promised to update the FAQ
to reflect advice on what to do if your
question does not elicit a response. The
FAQ will also include this new rule:
Sometimes it is the fault of the question,
the questioner, or who is reading the
question. Who knows for sure. A rewrite
or even one repost of the original is
tolerable, but more than one repost is not.
If after two attempts you have not gotten
an answer, there is too slim a chance you
will get an answer here. So please try
elsewhere.
Thanks,
m.p.
