| Then we figured it out -- it was a ghost drug store! As anybody who hasread Tim Powers Expiration Date knows, ghosts have certain definingfeatures, and this drug store had them all. It is obviously a drug storethat had accreted enough spirit that when it closed who knows how long ago,it managed to maintain a facade of continued existence that fooled actualcustomers into coming in, which of course boosted its spirit level enoughfor it to continue further, and so it has continued until the present day,despite the fact that it is in fact a big empty store front. Probably foolssuppliers, too. |
