    On the children's show Sesame Street there are some strange puppets that constantly say "Yup yup yup yup yup." What are the names of these weird puppets?

    Question #56035. Asked by eschatologist. (Mar 18 05 11:29 AM)

    		The new story for Sesame Street Live this year is entitled "Out of This World," in which the Yup-Yups, an alien race known for uttering "yup yup" over and over, return to Earth and encounter the Sesame Street gang.

    		Wow, that link is from my University's newspaper. I thought it was more obscure than that.

    And yet, this is odd. According to the Sesame Street Encyclopedia, which is copyrighted by Sesame Workshop and Jim Henson Productions, they are the Yip Yip Martians. However, according to the Sesame Street Live website, they are, in fact, called the Yup Yups. So I wonder if they've gotten a name-change.
