  16. Is there anyone out there who is familiar with Edgeworth expansions, and in
  17. particular, familiar with the book "Normal Approximation and Asymptotic
  18. Expansions" by Bhattacharya and Rao?  I have a problem to which I have
  19. applied Corollary 23.2 in this book, and I'm getting an answer that I have
  20. reason to believe is incorrect.  I would love to pick someone's brain using
  21. email about this problem, and I think that someone who understands
  22. asymptotic expansions of distribution functions should be able to answer my
  23. question relatively quickly.  Feel free to respond via email; my address
  24. is: cgrinst1@cc.swarthmore.edu . 
  25. Thanks.
