True, though some people have hypothesized that green is important because 
it relates to Slytherin. I'm inclined to wonder if that's true, since 
they've left Dan's eyes blue for the movies. In fact, IIRC, all of the 
lines about Harry having his mother's eyes have been deleted from the 
movies. Is that correct? If so, it makes me wonder if the eyes are 
important at all. Wouldn't THAT have been a successful red herring? <grin>
