I’m gonna run away to a snow monkey spa!
You have no idea how much I love pictures of SNOW MONKEYS!
A Japanese snow monkey relaxes in a hot spring in the Jigokudani valley in northern Nagano Prefecture, Japan on Feb 10, 2012. The macaques descend from the forests to the warm waters of the hot springs in the mornings, and return to the security of the forests in the evenings. (Nick Ut/Associated Press)
I enjoyed your article on Cleopatra; however, I was floored you got through it without a single reference to global warming, since it appears on every other page of every issue. Surely you could have attributed the sunken city of old Alexandria to it.

Yes, my people once killed whales and yes the whale is important to us. But now it’s time to repay the whales for what they gave to us in the past, now is the time to protect them, not to kill them. The whale was once the salvation of the Makah. We now need to be the salvation of the whale.
