I'm a black woman with dark brown eyes and my great grand mother on my fathers side has blue eyes. My uncle also has blue eyes and I was curious of the chances of me being able to produce them also, as my fiance has blue eyes. Found the article very interesting.

According to the widget the BA should have green eyes like me and her father except he had hazel eyes and there were no parameters for that! Weirdly, I remember saying to my stunningly beautifully blue eyed ex mother in law that if I had a girl I hoped she had the same coloured eyes. She did! Mind you, my own green eyes are pretty freaky if I say so myself. Especially when I cry! :-) green and red are on opposite side of the colour wheel you know!!! <em>arizaphale's last blog post..<a href='http://arizaphale.blogspot.com/2008/02/back-to-salt-mines.html' rel="nofollow">Back to the Salt Mines</a></em> Yea…what was that slider thing?????

Jeff and I have never been able to figure out how two green eyed parents ended up with one blue and one brown eyed son! The simple dna stuff they teach in BIO 103 doesn't add up when they say brown is dominant to everything. How weird that they think all blue eyed people came from a common ancestor. Of course, as a Creationist, I think we all did. :) <em>Jessica K's last blog post..<a href='http://justjessie.typepad.com/justjessie/2008/02/stepping-out.html' rel="nofollow">Stepping Out</a></em> That’s really interesting.
