When you omit a variable in a linear regression, the consequence is
to bias the coefficient on included variables which are correlated
with the omitted variable.  It's pretty straightforward to show
the magnitude of this bias.

Does anyone know how to show this in logistic regression?  Any help
would be much appreciated.
