OK, here are some facts (well, I call them facts anyway): >the heffalump does not appear in the books because it DOES NOT EXIST, it is a figment of Piglet's imagination, but Pooh and everyone get really fired up about finding one >Disney decided that it DOES exist (against all reason), so decided to morph it into a cute purple elephant for all the little kids in the audience >It's like the gopher/beaver/what-is-that-thing? that they added (was that in the books?), so they could have a funny-voiced animal in the film

Ok luvs... you Pooh purists you. *giggles* The whole point of Pooh-world is not taking stuff so seriously. You guys are not down with the poohness. You have obviously not discovered the Tao of Pooh ;)
