Re: st: example about choice experiment datasheet

-mlogit- is not very useful to model data from choice experiments as
it does not allow alternative-specific explanatory variables.
-asclogit- requires your data to be in long form (one row per
alternative); see -help asclogit- and the first example in the paper I
mentioned in my last email.
