Again with this? Really tired of this exact same article getting posted again and again and again.

If you actually believe this tripe you are part of the reason ATS is failing as an educational and awareness media.
Hair is keratin. Nerve cells are complex multi part electrical signal processors. In a very limited sense, yes the hair on your arms or in your ear can respond to environmental stimuli and send info to the brain. But it is not externalized nerves. It does not transmit or receive psychic energy. It is made of dead cells which do nothing.
There is no science to this article, and not a shred of evidence.
That's like saying that a house is just dead trees heaped in a pile.
I've been paying attention to this all day, ever since I read it this morning before going to work, and have come to realize that I can feel every stray current and eddy of air around me. I can tell when someone is behind me because the air changes. I think there's more to it than you are willing to admit.
Longer hair, having more mass and surface area, is more prone to register disturbances and transmit them to the nerves.

Oh - and the last two out of your three links go to exactly the same thread.

My kids ask my dad what happened to his hair and he tells them that an ostrich pecked it out. They told my dad that the ostrich got me too.

Yes and it is said that blind people, after a while, can sense when they are about to run into a wall and all the air pressure stuff you mentioned. maybe their hair helps this somehow? even the arm and face hair? or the peach fuzz that grows on your face where whiskers don't grow, like your forehead?
blind people Might be a good place to start with experimentation. remove all their body hair and see if they can still sense things as well.

THE COWSILLS "Hair" (Gerome Ragni and James Rado)
She asks me why
I'm just a hairy guy
I'm hairy noon and night
Hair that's a fright
I'm hairy high and low
Don't ask me why
Don't know
It's not for lack of bread
Like the Grateful Dead
Darling
Gimme head with hair
Long beautiful hair
Shining, gleaming,
Streaming, flaxen, waxen
Give me down to there hair
Shoulder length or longer
Here baby, there mama
Everywhere daddy daddy
Hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair
Flow it, show it
Long as God can grow it
My hair
Let it fly in the breeze And get caught in the trees
Give a home to the fleas in my hair
A home for fleas
A hive for bees
A nest for birds
There ain't no words
For the beauty, the splendor, the wonder
Of my...
Hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair
Flow it, show it
Long as God can grow it My hair
I want it long, straight, curly, fuzzy
Snaggy, shaggy, ratty, matty
Oily, greasy, fleecy Shining, gleaming, streaming
Flaxen, waxen
Knotted, polka-dotted
Twisted, beaded, braided
Powdered, flowered, and confettied
Bangled, tangled, spangled, and spaghettied!
Oh say can you see My eyes if you can
Then my hair's too short
Down to here
Down to there
Down to where
It stops by itself
They'll be ga ga at the go go
When they see me in my toga
My toga made of blond
Brilliantined
Biblical hair
My hair like Jesus wore it
Hallelujah I adore it Hallelujah
Mary loved her son
Why don't my mother love me?
Hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair
Flow it, show it
Long as God can grow it
My hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair
Flow it, show it
Long as God can grow it

Oh yeah, I used to have the 45 of the Cowsills 'Hair' as a kid. Probably had something to do with my growing it most of the way down my back by the time I was a teenager.

It's been posted a couple times that beards make men more manly, but mustaches make men creepy.
I have a friend that will see a guy with a mustache and say "Look at that rapist over there."
He's been doing it for years and it still makes me laugh.
