    *Fastenal*is the largest fastener distributor in North America. Shop
    our huge selection of OEM, MRO, construction, industrial, and safety
    products.

Surprisingly, out here in the hinterlands where slip joint pliers are 
HI-TEK, y'all.... I have a Fastenall store only 30 miles away. Putting 
that into perspective... it is about 30 miles in 5 different directions 
to the nearest Walmart stores.
