I was away from home and needed a plane to fit a door for someone. All
I could find to buy other than Lie Nielsens was a Rali. I could have
done as well with a utility knife...and the Rali isn't even heavy enough
to use as a door stop.

Last year I was at the woodworking show and I was wathcing a demo of that
"tool". The fellow doing the demo said in his speil that his plane would
put any othe plane at the show to shame. Some guy in the crowd asked, "Does
that include Lie Nielsen?" and the demo guy answered, "Yes." The fellow who
asked the question looked over at me, who was trying hard not to giggle, and
we both shook our heads and walked away in different directions. About 15
minutes later or so he and I met at the LN booth where we both walked away
with a new toy, er,tool. So much for his demo!
