A direct link has been found between blue eyes and alcoholism.

Scientists at the University of Vermont were compiling a database on mental disorders and, as an unexpected side effect, discovered an interesting phenomenon - the brighter a person's eyes, the more likely they are prone to excessive drinking and alcohol addiction. And vice versa. Owners of green and gray eyes are at risk, and blue-eyed people are alcoholics. Not always, of course, but more often than anyone else. Scientists rechecked the results obtained three times to make sure they were reliable.
