Further the person who mentioned Bob Hyatt never suggested that Bob Hyatt thought comps were barely USCF masters.  He only suggested that "Someone"  likely Bob Hyatt does't think comps are GM strength and there are a ton of Bob Hyatt cronies that when he says jump, they say "how high?".

If my reply had been directed to you, I would have replied to your post, not to
Mr. Warfield's.  I thought his post was exactly of the "yeah! that's right!"
style that he was denigrating to begin with.
