See:NL Johnson and S Kotz, Discrete Distributions, Houghton-Mifflin
(1969), which has a chapter on contagious distributions and also
discussion of a number of specific types.  The most common are Negative
Binomial, and Neyman type A.  There are also a wealth of references on
fitting contagious distributions of various types.
