Correspondence Index, 2002-2003

The last correspondence index was so popular that I decided to do it again. (Okay, okay. Nobody ever commented about it. Since that's the case with most of this site's pages, I figure "what the heck?".)

The reason this is the 2002-2003 index is that it covers a period of (roughly) one year, from October 2002 to September 2003 inclusive.
