[R] How to obtain parameters of a mixture model of two lognormal distributions

[Jacques Wagnor]

Dear List,

I have read that a lognormal mixture model having a pdf of the form
f(x)=w1*f1(x)+(1-w1)*f2(x) fits most data sets quite well, where f1
and f2 are lognormal distributions.

Any pointers on how to create a function that would produce the 5
parameters of f(x) would be greatly appreciated.
