Thanks. Finally, there's a stat question I can add something to before *you*
get too far into it vbg.
I didn't know of the CRC source you cited. I know only of a neat article by
Freimer, Mudhoker at al. that really digs into it, and, AFAIK, was the one
to generalize the distribution, though how I don't recall. I'll look into
it, though it will take me a few days yet. Could you plz post the
generalization from the CRC, or at least point us towards it? Then we can
walk the OP through how to fit it to his data using Excel.

What brought it to mind is its simplicity and flexibility. If the OP is
willing to work with cumulatives (my preference as well) then, short of
working directly with the empirical cumulative, I cannot think of a better
proximal distribution in this case for data I haven't seen.
