Models were fit using SAS PROC GENMOD and/or PROC NLP. Links to the SAS input for models reported
in this paper plus a few others, some dummy and effect coding, and some using alternate parameterization of the LMA models
are given below. It is recommended that when using PROC NLP start with simple models (that you can compare results from
PROC GENMOD) and build up to more complex ones.
