~/ gets expanded by the shell to the contents of ${HOME} before the sudo command is even executed, so it's going to be root's home, usually /root - (as recommended by others) launch pd from a script, and specify the full path to the script in your /etc/rc.local sudo command (avoid using ~/ or ${HOME}).
That worked. Claude and Simon, you guys were right about this. Thanks a lot to all.
