Hello

Do you mean cilia? And that's the hair within your inner ear ( http://www.neurophys.wisc.edu/h&b/au...atomy/a25.html.

I think nasal hair is just called "disgusting".

From here

The sinuses produce mucus that helps us clean the nose and to smell. It's moved out of the sinuses and into the nasal cavity by thousands of tiny hairs, called cilia, which operate in unison to form a sort of conveyor belt. Foreign particles and organisms entering the sinuses land in the mucus and are sent back to the nose, away from danger. To get to the nose, the mucus has to pass through small holes in the bones that surround the sinuses.

Was this at some point part of Kev's fountain of knowledge that he passed on, like that shark thing yesterday?
