[Basta-users] Negative senescence when enforced!

[Cliff Cunningham]

Dear Basta,

	I'm pleased to report that I have -- with an artificial dataset -- been able to recover patterns of declining mortality.  Thanks very much for fixing this!

	Is it possible to enforce declining mortality on a simulation (enforcing negative b1)?  I'd like to see how this affects the pattern of deaths in the life tables, as there are entire years with no deaths.
	
	Thanks very much!

   	Cliff Cunningham
