Those people lucky enough to have jobs were overwhelmingly male. Even more important, the world had yet to hear of organ transplants and the manifold other wonders of modern medicine.

Now she lives off in the woods near others who service Telluride in manifold ways but whose purchasing power is so weak they sleep in their cars, in campers, in condemned shacks, in caves, in tents.
