When an apprentice weaver is placed in sole charge of a loom, there is always the chance that the resulting fabric will contain slight imperfections. So it was with my article on the weavers of influence (Bodman, 1991). Continuing research on this topic has uncovered the names of three additional human geographers whose citation records warranted their inclusion among the 'master weavers'. The most prominent of these is R. A. Sayer (Sussex), whose 273 citations between 1984 and 1988 would have ranked him as the sixteenth most frequently cited human geographer in that interval. The two other authors omitted were M. Storper (UCLA) and D. W. Meinig (Syracuse). With 134 citations, Storper should have appeared in fifty-seventh position, while Meinig's total of 107 in SSCI and SCI indexed journals would have placed him in a tie for eighty-third place on an amended list. These additions bring to ninety the number of human geographers who received at least a hundred citations from others in this five year
