Are you saying that the podcasts are "fun" or that we should make Fun the topic?

apologies. I was merely expressing my opinion about the podcasts. It's going to be fun.

although fun may not be a bad topic for the future.

Yeah, I agree with you... and now hiss that FUN could completely make a good topic. It's broad enough to where we could get many aspects of what makes something "fun". From an evolutionary standpoint do we know when hominids started to "recreate". -Could turn to theadvancedapes for that. As far as a broad topic goes, that's not a bad one.

I am actually preparing a paper for publication at the moment on the topic of chimpanzee play. Play, as it turns out, is a widespread mammalian activity pattern. Any guesses why? You'll have to wait and find out on a future thenewgreen podcast!

Nice teaser.

Fun should totally be a topic.

I'm thinking it very well might be. Could be a great way to include a lot of people and get to know them better. YOu in?

hiss  ·  4344 days ago  ·  link  ·  

Yes. It'll be awesome.

If "fun" were the topic, can you give me an example of a question you would ask?
