The social law that if you hear a reference to an arcane or forgotten word, idea, or person, you will encounter that word, idea, or person again in the near future.
"Yesterday, I learned the word 'soporific,' and then it was used on the Daily Show tonight! It's Darby's Law!"
"Oh my god. There was a major Darby's Law today. I hadn't heard about Bill Nye the Science Guy in years until we talked about him in English class. Then he was in my science textbook the next period."

It is sometimes called "the gateway of Delco" because it has two main roads in and out of the city (West Chester Pike/Market street and Marshall Road)and because the 69th street terminal provides transportation to and from the city and Montgomery County. It is home of the Tower theater, Sellers library (old "Hoodland estate), and friendly people. The Township has five fire companies and a hard working police department as well as a hospital (Delaware County Memorial). Main roads include the West Chester Pike, Lansdowne ave, 69th street, State road, Township Line (US route 1),Burmont ave, Garrett road, and long lane.
