Before Sharon got Caller ID, she frequently had jagged and partial conversations with many a leper trying to get a hold of the immigrant who last inhabited her new home.

Leper Lepellier

Boy from John Knowles's A Separate Peace. A recluse and continually scorned by the other boys at Devon for avoiding the war (World War II) Leper is like the punching bag and sad sack. Eventually, he succumbs to insanity after having to endure the harshness of training for war, never actually making it out to battle.

Brinker Hadley was one of Leper Lepellier's main antagonists, rejecting him because he feels he is too much of a "naturalist."

Leper Colony

That group of kids everybody knew in high school that individually were often the targets of derision and/or physical violence, but who through some geek radar found one another to form an alliance, thereby lessening the probability that any one member is a victim.

The reference to the middle-age practice of isolating individuals with Hansen's Disease (Leprosy) and not allowing them to come into contact with any "normal" people is apropos because if a "normal" (read non-geekified) child were to associate with the leper colony, s/he is immediately labeled as suspect, and in extreme cases will be isolated him/her self, thus becoming a member of the colony.

Mark's sister: "Mark has been indoctrinated into the Leper Colony and is at the park LARPing."

Mark's mom: "NO GOD, NOOOOOOOO!"
