Greetings,

I'm interested in generating data from various bivariate or 
mulitivariate distributions (e.g. gamma, t, etc), where I can specify 
the parameter values, including the correlations among the variables.  I 
haven't been able to dig anything up on the faq, but I probably missed 
something.  A nudge in the right direction would be appreciated.

David
