DB had _full-time_ GM helpers.  More than one.  Murray was a 2200 player, which
also helped.  I don't know the ratings for the rest of them.  I get more than
my fair share of GM advice.  But I don't have GMs sitting around playing games,
probing for weaknesses, and then telling me what is needed to fill the holes,
day in and day out.
