Ok I know where I can get about 200 or so nuvistors.  Question is are all Nuvistors the same?  When I opened up the little box it looked somewhat like the the one on that link just a little different.  But the same general shape.  And small.  I may be able to get them cheap.  The place that has them isn't really sure what the heck they are good for and kind of dismissed them as even being tubes when I asked about them.  

let me know, I'll be in there tomorrow and I'll get a better look at them and try and give you guys a better description.  It was hard to concentrate cause I was surrounded by alot of RCA 12aX7s JAN 12aX7 and 6l6 blackplates and every other tube known to man branded mostly either JAN or RCA.  I was amazed I even remembered to look for the nuvistors.  I was hyperventilating.

I totally forgot this thread....yikes!  Did you ever get some nuvistors/use them?   

There's a guy on various forums (The Gainster) that made clips of my Nu-Valve pedal that uses 2 Nuvistors.  There are about 5 clips here:
