Here's a current list of top-5 blitz ratings for human players on ICC.

3129 Leon(GM)
3115 Vic11
3103 Tendulkar(GM)
3055 A-Morozevich(GM)
3041 Hawkeye(IM)


Leon         = Alexei Shirov
Vic11        = ? (anonymous)
Tendulkar    = Sachin Tendulkar
A-Morozevich = Alexander Morozevich
Hawkeye      = Ronald Schmaltz


I have never heard of Sachin Tendulkar, but he must be quite a strong blitz
player.  Certainly Shirov and Morozevich are the two best-known super GMs
reguarly play on ICC.  Morozevich is #4 on the July 99 FIDE rating list, and
Shirov is #5.

I'm sure there are many other super-GMs who play on ICC, but most of them prefer
to remain anonymous.
