Chemist Georg Steinhauser has now completed his research in belly button lint. He spent 3 years studying his belly button and those of his friends. His hypothesis is that abdominal hair is the culprit that causes the lint to collect in your belly button. He has also hypothesized that men are more prone to have belly button lint than women. Amazing?! Please keep in mind that we now have more knowledge about this phenomenon because of his work. Of course, there are many more findings in his study and I feel sure you could probably buy a copy of his complete study somewhere, if you wanted. I don't but you might.
Also, this blog would be remiss if I didn't mention Dr. Karl Kruszelnicki who won an lg Nobel Prize in 2002 for his Interdisciplinary Research into belly button lint. His research was conducted through a systematic survey. The conclusion of his research was about the same as the conclusions of the above research but I believe that Dr. Kruszelnicki is a pioneer in this field.
