title: NPM uninstall -g yo, yo still works
body: <p>I'm a noob at my wits end and have already consulted a couple of friends who know (much) more than me. Sorry if these are dumb questions. Hoping you guys can help.</p>
  
  <p>I think it has to do with some weird NPM pathing issues, but I can't figure them out. <code>npm install -g generator-xxx</code> follows through with success, but when I run Yo, no generators are listed.</p>
  
  <p>Tried <code>npm update -g npm</code> - no dice. Npm remains out of date. This is also true of <code>n</code> and most (but not all? I think?) npm modules.</p>
  
  <p>I tried to start from scratch, followed <a href="https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/uninstall" rel="nofollow">NPM's advice</a> for a complete fresh start. Reinstalled node from node.js's website. Happily, node is up to date, but npm is <em>still</em> several released behind (<code>2.11.3</code>).</p>
  
  <p>The most disturbing part of all of this: <code>npm uninstall -g npm</code> and the packages still work, which makes me think I've got a rogue npm installation rumbling around somewhere in my box, but I cannot find it.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance for your time and consideration!</p>
