Don't worry.  You can't get a 3055 anywhere.

Thats real old timing there.
 


Thanks guys, I guess I'll order another or first try the radio shack
down the road (the local one stopped selling most components, and only
sells devices now, you cannot even get a 3055 transistor, or a rectifier
diode!  It is sickening.)
