Re: st: way to control for repeated measures when using svy: commands?

["Lima, Julie" <julie_lima@brown.edu>]

Thanks -- I had seen an old stata post where someone had made the
personid the PSU and so used svy procedures to account for the
repeated measures, but they were not also adjusting for a complex
sampling design.  I missed this more recent one you referred me to --
very helpful.
