Well, Philly's psychics didn't see this coming: the police have begun shutting down all seers' shops in the city. Apparently there is a 30-year-old law on the books banning visions-for-profit enterprises--yes, you are probably wondering, this does also include astrologers, phrenologists and tarot-card readers. It appears Philly's council, three decades ago, might have been concerned about mediums' mendacity: defrauding folks. In any event, the Philly police have recently begun enforcing the law.
Which the shop owners should have seen coming.
The future looks bright,
