Two questions that are totally irrelevant but which you might find yourself asking (if you don't have a life):

1. Wouldn't it really tick you off to be dead and realize that, all these centuries later, you are regarded as a genius, and there is absolutely nothing you can do about it now -- no endorsement deals to make you rich, no incredibly beautiful women slipping you their phone numbers?

2. What nickname should you have had? Maybe something cute, like L'll mozie, would have made you more accessible and therefore more commercially successful......

Don't mean to be disrespectful-- I love mozart. But I do wonder who'd he be if he was live today.

He'd be Elton John. Scary thought isn't it.

Yes, all of the above, and additionally, I didn't know his skull was missing, did you? Had I known, I'd also have been searching all these years--I could have had a mission. Darn!

What'll they do with it if it is his skull? Maybe a clone? Just think of all the patent rights and things people would be scrambling for.

Sell it on Ebay.

Haydn's skull was swiped, too.
