Simulating data and GLMMPQL using JM #35

Hi everyone,

I have a couple of questions about what the simulate function is capable of.

Can it be utilized to sample out the evolution (paid and time) of open claims (unevolved data points) using N simulations?

In addition, how do the glmmPQL and LME functions interact between each other, right now they are probably equivalent (or not?) as I am using gaussian family, but would like to try to work using other dist families (gamma, inv gauss) - currently these don't seem to be working.

Thanks John Gribble
