I recently read an important research finding that explains how belly button lint comes to be accumulated in the… well, the belly button.

You can read about it here: http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,504067,00.html .

But as the story says, “So now that we know how it forms, the next question is — why?”

Why, indeed.

I am a great fan of brainstorming and group thinking. In brainstorming, people present every possible idea they can think of. There are no “bad ideas” at the brainstorming stage.

Are you ready to brainstorm? I hope so.

Just comment below with your theory: “Why did God create belly button lint?”

For every creative idea, I’ll donate another $1 to the Raimi Adoption Fund. (P.S. If we keep this up, I’m going to have to find a sponsor for these little events. If you’re a potential sponsor, e-mail me at mbra...@knowsowgrow.com.)
