I have written a Google Fusion Tables script I'm happy with (below), but it's loading only 500 rows of points in my table, which has over 20,000 rows. This is my first time in this neighborhood and I was really surprised to find the limit. Is there some way to load all the rows?

The Gviz API does have a 500 row limit for a given query.
Any table is limited to 100,000 mappable rows, but that's well outside your reported 20,000 rows.
The new Javascript API, currently accepting Trusted Testers, offers JSON format support for any number of rows returned for a query. You can apply for the TT program by requesting membership in this group: https://groups.google.com/group/fusion-tables-api-trusted-testers

I routinely refresh a 2500 row table by deleting all rows and inserting new ones. The loop in my code that constructs the INSERT sql has a nested loop that just counts to 400, sends that sql, and then starts building another one with the next 400 records.
The fusiontables/gvizdata URL is intended for Gviz charts and so is limited to 500 points. There are other ways to query that don't have that limitation. See https://developers.google.com/fusiontables/docs/sample_code for examples.
I solved the problem by using the json call method. Code below.
