+Description: 
+	This package allows users to easily specify and fit
+	Bayesian models via Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC). Models
+	may be specified using standard Bayesian model
+	"twiddle" notation.  Functions are provided to convert these
+	models into density functions and random generators, and to
+	use these estimate the posterior density using a variety of
+	MCMC algorithms, including the general Metropolis-Hastings and
+	Metropolis algorithms.
