### Using granovagg.ds to compare matched individuals for two treatments

# This example corresponds to case 2b in Pruzek and Helmreich (2009). For this
# data, we're examining the level of lead (in mg/dl) present in the blood of
# children. Children of parents who had worked in a factory where lead was used
# in making batteries were matched by age, exposure to traffic, and neighborhood
# with children whose parents did not work in lead-related industries.
