This is, I assure you, a very serious matter.
Please Help, Reincarnation of Paul Morphy Stuck in Inept Chess Player's Body
This is really quite embarassing; I'm not sure how the powers-that-be goofed in such an uncomfortable (and sure to be) mistake.
It's not that I'm questioning the will of God, or whomever (that rascal Anderssen?) may be behind this "blunder". I only feel frustrated by this turn of events. But I have made peace with the world and have gracefully come to once again bless the chess community with my presence. Please, do not thank me.
I am only grateful that the gods have granted me knowledge of my past life so that, though unable to rise to my properly deserved chess fame, some sort of action might be taken so that such a mistake is not made a second time.
Yours, etc.
Paul Morphy

The hook and bait are in the water and the fish are eyeing it.
I think we have conclusive proof that standards have risen so highly that Morphy would be a mere patzer nowadays.
And there is a bite.
What are you talking abo...
