  14. I have been presented with the problem of recognizing a "Contagious"
  15. distribution, which has been described to me as a distribution of items
  16. that are clustered.
  17.  
  18. I have not been able to find any references to this type of distribution.
  19. If anyone knows of such references, or another name that describes this,
  20. please either respond to this newgroup or by email.

  22. Thanks,
