Did anyone else see the Associated Press article by Tim Sullivan called, Losing the Yeti in forgotten nation of Bhutan? My train reading is a book by Karen Armstrong called, A Short History of Myth and it's interesting to read the aforementioned article in the context of mythology over a span of time in a developing society moving away from agriculture towards its own "Great Western Transformation." The parallels are striking.
