Hi,

Looking over the program that populates REPSTATS
I notice that when there's a pregnancy you don't get
P rows in repstats until the offspring has a birthdate.
I belive this was intentional, especially as there
is a 'days remaining' in state column which couldn't
be filled out until the length of the state is known,
but there are implications.  I figured I'd write as
we're starting to work with this data.

All abortions must have rows in BIOGRAPH with a Birth date.

The as-yet-unborn don't show in REPSTATS.
