   Substitute X for mu^-1.
   Shouldn't this be Gamma(n+alpha+2,xsum+theta)?

   Hi Ykai
   The prior is not a Gamma, it looks similar but the terms do not match up exactly to what is in the Tables even with x=mu^-1, so we can only match the posterior to the prior with the new parameters.
   Thanks Andrea
