Excellent points, Gary. As I recall, Fischer had William Lombardy and
Larry
Evans. I can remember seeing photos of Fischer looking like he was really
enjoying himself with them, playing on a compact set floating in a
swimming pool! If companionship were a primary consideration, who would
you take? Polymathic grandmaster Jonathan Rowson or Kings Indian expert
retired grandmaster Tal Shaked might be my choices.
