OK even IF it were ethical (and that if is bigger than the posterior 
of the average qb'er) the fact that you posted this to the entire qb 
community means that anyone who would have come to your tournament 
can now just read the Stanford Archive and do well.  So it doesn't 
even matter if this is ethical, this is now just STUPID because you 
have encouraged memorization bowl.  Frauds rejoice!

Oh by the way, so you want to make a $$ on something that is public 
domain, but you still want to credit the author?  Do you plan on 
compensating the author?
