Looked at the thread about the Ryobi OSS on sale at HD, and decided
to see if the closest one to me (about 10 miles) had any.

First looked in the yellow pages of the local phone book. Two
Lowes were there, but no HD. Hmmm. OK, checked the white pages. Found
HD listed there.

OK, called, and no answer. Called again. Same. Repeat several
more times. So, tried operator assistance, and got the same number.
Tried calling several more time, still no answer.

Dug out a couple more phone books. The two Lowes are listed, but
no HD.

I haven't been in a HD in a lonnnng time, and obviously that was a
good move. I wouldn't mind getting one of those sanders, but I'm not
about to drive that far just to check.
