I believe it's Europe's (or is it Asia?) version of Big Foot.

Well, my 6 month old niece makes sounds like the guy on the AOL commercial, so therefore we call her Yetti. But I never bothered to find out what that was.

I think I'm going to get flogged by the Star Wars fans.

You're correct !!! It does sound like Chewbacca...
Kind of wish I could get my PC to do that at boot up...

3sum, that's sasquatch, not yeti. Yeti to sasquatch is like polar bear to grizzly bear.
a yeti is the sasquatch that lives in the himilayas. And I have yet to see that commercial!! I've heard so much about it....
