Wouldn't it be great to find a card of him from 1904? I bet he already had the fire in his eyes at that age and unfortunately some fire in his heart too....

I'm sure people like Cobb are born with a portion of that sort of negativity imprinted into their genes, but something tells me the 1904 Tyrus would have been a touch more blue-eyed. The whole "mother shooting the father" hulabaloo was yet to come. That really seemed to run congruent with the hardening of Cobb's psyche. From a psychological perspective, that, to me, can be easily understood.
