But it is worth noting that they are not getting GW from the
distributors--they can't. They can only get it direct from GW, who is
unaffected by the distributor shake-up. All I am saying is that you
should try to be patient with the stores while things get settled: if
you don't there may not be a store in your area six months from now.
