	Yellowstone? It burned away with the rest, chasing the animals out. That winter there were more wolves than had been seen since 1887. They're getting bigger, now too. The great "Grizzled Bear" as Meriwether Lewis called him, has remembered that it is still the top predator in the area.		Yellowstone? It burned away with the rest, chasing the animals out.

 Heh. I s'pose I should tell you folks about Butte, now. There's a funny story.

+Eastern and Northern Montanans, before the "Big Burn", used to mock Butte folk for either A) Being drunken, swearing, Catholic (the important part) BASTARDS who had had to drink all the alcohol because the water was so bad, or B) Being stuck-up, priggish, Oh-so-holier than-thou Protestant  BASTARDS who drank the water (because drunkenness was a Catholic thing) and thus became insane mutants.

			Huh. Well, kid. You want to know what happened to the "Glory of the West", do ya?

			Well, then, here's how the chips fell.

			As Montana cities go, Butte was big ('course that ain't saying much). A center of mining since right after Lewis and Clark finished their report to President Jefferson.
