there's some Gauss code at my web site to do this. even tho you probably
don't know Gauss, you can probably figure it out enough to port it over.

Subject: Re: [gov2001-l] Our Abstract
Crowded Cities, Crowded Streets: How Population
Density Affects Local
Participation
Maybe, the main title should have "political participation" in it? e.g.,
Political Participation in Crowded Cities.
Drawing on a survey of 29,000 Americans from
communities throughout
the
United
States, this paper expands on J. Eric Oliver's (2000) argument that
living
in
a
larger city decreases the probability that one will engage in a
variety of
forms of local political participation.
The beginning of the abstract could be a bit more spiced up.
By shifting the causal emphasis from
a
city¡¯s size to its population density,
It's not really clear what this means.
we illustrate that the effects of an
individual¡¯s environment depend crucially on the kind of
participation in
question. As population density increases, an
individual is 2.7% less
likely
to attend a public meeting, but 2.0% more likely to participate in a
demonstration, boycott, or protest.
Probably, this should come first and get more emphasized.
