A couple of questions about this story...

1) Is there any connection between King's "Here There Be Tygers" and Ray Bradbury's "Here There Be Tygers" (1951)? They are both very different stories, but they both have the exact same title and both feature things that (seemingly) appear out of nowhere (very loose connection, I know). I could totally see King having a copy of the Bantam Books R is for Rocket in the mid-60's and being inspired by it.

2) Why is "Tiger" spelled with a "Y" in both stories? I know it's a reference to "Here be Dragons", but why the "Y"??

Thanks
