83. What was your answer on the eye color question? I was reluctant to say yes but I'm sure I had seen studies saying

some eye colors have higher intelligence.

Snip: There is some evidence that people with blue eyes may be more intelligent, but there is no scientific consensus to support this claim:
A University of Louisville study found that people with blue eyes may be more studious, strategic, and focused than people with brown eyes. The study also found that people with blue eyes may perform better on exams.
A University of Louisville paper found that people with light eyes may perform better at behaviors that require delay, self-pacing, and non-reacting.

I'm wondering if that is one that I missed. If I missed it then I'm not sure it's a good question since there are several studies that suggest this.
