You are my . . . blue-eyed girl!

A new scientific theory is circulating: that people with blue eyes descend from a common ancestor.

A team of scientists has tracked down a genetic mutation that leads to blue eyes. The mutation occurred between 6,000 and 10,000 years ago, so before then, there were no blue eyes.

"Originally, we all had brown eyes," said Hans Eiberg from the Department of Cellular and Molecular Medicine at the University of Copenhagen.

So . . . does that now mean that all blue-eyed people are really inbred?
