<p>Nobel laureate Bob Dylan must have exercised his creative license when he wrote “Mona Lisa musta had the highway blues, you can tell by the way she smiles,” because Dutch researchers from the University of Amsterdam found the smile to be 83% happy, 9% disgusted, 6% fearful, 2% angry, and less than 1% neutral.
