You don't seem to have read the Statalist FAQ before posting, as you
were asked to do.

Holmes and Hutton (1990a, 1990b). It's possible that someone
recognises those references, but you are asked not to use minimal date
(year) references.

Equations. That doesn't qualify as Plain Text. The equations you
posted are readable at the StataCorp archive

http://www.stata.com/statalist/archive/2013-04/msg01029.html

but not in the corresponding Harvard archive entry. You are assuming
your notation is transparent.

. findit holmes hutton

yields nothing by way of Stata programs, but they may not be the best keywords.

That's as far as I can help. Other people on the list know immensely
more about this area.
