[R] Multiple random effects inlme?

[James Rogers]

Bob, 
You need to make use of pdBlocked and pdIdent. There is a simple example
in Bates and Pinheiro's book (Mixed Effects Models in S an S+). I don't
have the book in front of me to get the page number, but I remember it
is an example using data contributed by Dave Lansky. A related s-news
thread (which is probably sufficient to answer your question) is:

Best,
