David,

Relax, in these days of common apps and cut-and-paste essays, no one has any illusions about essays not being recycled. I’ll bet the reason that she was so nice is that they see this every year. I once did the same thing in a book proposal: left in the name of a publisher that had rejected the ms. Book got published, and the second editor told me that they got a chuckle out of it. Hope you have the same result. Good luck!
