I've never worked with -sqreg-, but unless the bootstrapping procedure
inside it can take care of the clustering on id, the standard errors are
pretty much useless (as the bootstrap is with the dependent data unless
you make a Herculian effort to take the dependence into your resampling
procedure). And I don't see -id- appearing anywhere in your -sqreg-
command. Just curious.
