Interesting but IMO this list is overrated... GM title is too easy to get, if you are a great player (but not me, I'm an autentic 1800 patzer) Fischer was proclaimed GM because in 1958 he calificated to the tournament candidats.... i.e.:he was (in teory) one of the 9 best players of the world (perhaps Carlssen gets it) Excuse my very poor english..... Best regards.....
