		<description>While it is true that multiple mutations would occur over a long, long period of time, only the end result of that chain would be recognizable. The micro changes along the chain would be ignored or unnoticed until the final mutation that allowed for an observable difference.  Factually correct, but faulty logic.</description>

		<description>Jeannie Boudreau Richards I am so happy that you published this article. In my upcoming novel series, &quot;The Yeshua &amp; Miri Novels Series&quot;, based on the missing years of jesus, Yeshua and his son Thomas both have striking, luminous eyes, and both are able to &quot;see&quot; into people&#039;s souls. Although Yeshua&#039;s eyes are golden-amber, Thomas&#039;s unusual eye-color is described as a bright, lapis blue, much the same as Nong Youhui&#039;s amazing eyes. Thomas is an angelic being, half angel and half human, and although he is a fictional character, based on Thomas the Apostle, it&#039;s wonderful to be able to confirm that &quot;special eyes&quot; actually DO exist in the natural world!

		<description>very well said. We shouldn&#039;t believe anything but we shouldn&#039;t discredit anything either. I will only call it a hoax if it is proven as one otherwise everyone should have an open mind to accept some possibility that this is indeed true.</description>

		<description>Pls watch the video. It wasn&#039;t just a writing test. The boy was made to answer some questions and he answered it legibly and filled blanks correctly.</description>

		<description>Some people&#039;s pupils seem naturally dilated all the time, the same effect you get from belladonna drops. Anyone&#039;s eyes shine when light reflects off the back of the eyeball--that&#039;s why we have red-eye correction. A writing test doesn&#039;t prove anything. I can write in the dark--but it can&#039;t be read even in broad daylight!</description>

		<description>I am convinced that it was not pitch black, even in a dark room for film rolling there would be some seepage of light under the door from the safety lights outside. That small amount of light alone is enough for me to distinguish the sprockets on the film negative.</description>

		<description>As others have said, out of 7 billion people, occasionally a tiny few will manifest some wonderful positive mutations, however, when the article reported that&quot;(the boy) . . .completes a writing test in a pitch-black stairwell&quot;. This is where we have a problem.

Even cats—as well as other animals with fantastic night vision cannot see where no light is available. For vision to occur SOME light needs to bounce off of objects and into even the keenest eye for there to be vision.</description>

		<description>Is he color-blind?  Color-blind people have a greater number of rods than color-seeing people, resulting in better night vision.  I am color-blind and have been astonished on several occasions that people I am with in a low-light environment haven&#039;t been able to see things I could see clearly.</description>

		<description>I was also wondering whether it&#039;s just that blue eyes admit more light.  It might not make much of a difference, but it might be *just enough* of a difference.</description>
