I agree with you Bob.  DB97 beat the WC.  That was huge accomplishment.  I also
think that Genius defeating the WC at G/25 as a commercial was a huge
accomplishment (different, but also huge).

I also think that when a commercial beats the WC at standard FIDE (1 or 2 or 4
or 6 or 8 or however many games) that will be a huge accomplishment.
