I have a prototype code implementing Vale-Maurelli procedure of
generating two standardized (mean zero, variance 1) random variables
with a given population skewness and kurtosis, as well as a given
correlation. It's not available on the web, but I can send you the
existing code and beta-documentation (a medium-rare SJ submission).
