Where do you come from? Where do you go?

I was checking out my belly button the other day, and found that it was full of lint. This got me to thinking...does the lint come from all over and somehow collect in my belly button, or is my belly button just capturinng the lint that is created directly above it?

I find it somewhat hard to believe that my belly button has some kind of "black hole" like power, that no lint can escape from. This must mean that it is capturing only the small fraction of lint that forms directly around (or above?) the belly button hole. I assume that the lint is also created around other parts of my body, but with no belly button to collect it, just disappears into the environment. Think about how much lint you would have if you took the stuff in your belly button and then multiplied it to include the lint from all the imaginary belly buttons that could cover the surface of your body!
