I must be a dumba$$ for not comprehending but I can get the same weather
info from DUATS that I can from flight seervice. The reason I always call
FSS for a briefing (even after I have used DUATS) is to go on record as
obtaining a weather breifing (for liability reasons???).

DUATS is an official breifing same as calling FSS.
