They were always amongst us. Maybe they were we. In small cities and towns there were always folks like that in the neighborhood, and you went to school with their kids. Nowadays, when the social classes are so much more isolated from one another, you kind of shudder when you read such accounts. The world isn't nearly as savory as it used to be - all the interesting stuff's apparently now confined to the trailor parks!

Tucson gets about 60% of its water from the Colorado River and about 25% from non-replenishable sources. With global warming, increasing population, and the mastadon water drying up, they may have to stop washing cars. Joseph. Hi John,
