A few random thoughts for the day, while I attempt to unweave the strands of lip hair that have tangled themselves together...
If a beard is a measure of a man's education, then I have nearly earned two post-graduate degrees -- which is appropriate. But lest we get too smug, I'll just point out that Newton had no beard. Nor did Hooke. Nor many in the Enlightenment. Also, note that Benjamin Harrison had quite the chin-devil, but wasn't known as a man of genius. So perhaps -- just perhaps -- there's no correlation.
Actually, that's only random thought I have, which is another mark against the "beard == intelligence" theory, Cmar's example aside.
