I've thought about it many times. I don't think scaeagles was attempting to imply that a bigger nose is linked to a brain type. BUT, there is a lot of evidence that personality, intelligence, and many other mental traits ARE genetic. Just from an anectodtal standpoint, my mom always had a lot more, personality wise, in common with her father than her step-father, even though she was raised for most of her life by her step-father.
So if there IS a genetic component to personality, then there's a good chance that there will be racial similiarities in that respect.
