Bowden et al,

Most of your points appear to be data errors which I assume NIST
and/or the LDC will be looking into. I can address at least one of
your questions:

I believe that we are supposed to track everything. You will not be
evaluated on what you do with MISC stories. They will be discounted
by the evaluation software. This point is not stated explicitly (I
don't see it at least), but is implicit in the discussion at the top
of page 2 of the eval plan (v3.7).
