I hope Mr Gregg doesn't mind me posting on here but I am very excited by these big questions and I can't help myself, really. Mimi's question 'What is the value of dreams?' is interesting for many reasons. It is worthy of scientific study, but it is also a beautiful idea. You could ask, Why do individuals and communities value dreams? Why are people romantic?
No, it's great to have you here, Mr Kelly! I know you appreciate these kinds of questions. Yes - Mimi's question is wonderful. And there's a long history of trying to answer it in lots of different ways.
We didn't get to actually try and answer any of these this time. We did try and take a long sweep at one of our previous Big Questions - why men and women are different - but we didn't even finish that one!
Cristina, I think the reason why people find baby animals cute is because they have infant like traits and they evolved to making lots of people care for them and it is usually vital for them as they are defenseless. If you want to know more check on Wikipedia, and type Cuteness on the search bar!
