DURKIN "The snowplows are keeping things moving in town, but the mountain roads are completely blocked."
HALLORANN "That means I'm going to need a Snocat to get up there, Larry. Can you fix me up with one?" DURKIN "What's the big deal with getting up there today, especially in this weather?"
HALLORANN "Larry, just between you and me we got a very serious problem with the people taking care of the place. They turned out to be completely unreliable assholes. Ullman phoned me last night, and I'm supposed to go up there and find out if they have to be replaced."
DURKIN "How long is it going to take for you to get up here?"
HALLORANN "Oh, about five hours. I'm going to rent a car here at the airport."
DURKING "Ok Dick, I'll take care you it."
