Let me state the facts and you can tell me why they don't mean the obvious... 
when I plug in the WUSH54G device, the disk blinks, the device blinks, and a 
wireless connection is made. On looking at the files in /lib/firmware I see that 
the most recently accessed file is rt73.bin. And that if I boot without plugging 
in the WUSH54G device that firmware is not accessed.

I didn't pull that filename out of the sir, I looked to see what firmware was 
accessed. Are you saying that the access when the device is used is just a 
coincidence?
