Can I become a grandmaster if....

Great article, thanks.

Which one do you think is more impossible?
I've seen so many of these type questions on Chess.com lately, I thought I'd add my own.
I've read before that chess players now are generally stronger than they were 100 or 150 years ago.
So, can I become a grandmaster if I travel back in time and beat all these guys? What if I travel back in time and beat Morphy and the other great players who lived within 50 years of him?
