David Emerson-Kramer dropped in a bump round in 2000.

Lionel Rivera squirreled fanatically with me in the 2002 semis, not Fred Robertson (who was in the majority)

and also the octos panels in 2002 are mixed up; I was on the panel that judged Fulwiler/Doss flight A and Squires/Bernstein flight B - Weaver, Arton, Timmons judged Garvin/Anderson

actually, many of the seedings and pairings are wrong (particularly in 2002 where andrew garvin was 9th seed against josh anderson as 8, and lost to jen larson in quarters)

I take responsibility for the errors. I always thought Katy and Katy-Taylor were the same. Oops.
If anyone can point out any mistakes, or fill in any gaps (e.g. missing judge panels), please do so.
