Hmmm... Pepperoni grease doesn't make a good fluxing agent? Maybe an enterprising sort could come up with a pepperoni that has a more compatible "organic flux", so the dream of a pizza shop by day/electronics production house at night could be a reality. :) Along a similar thought, there's a new business that opened across town that's a Laundromat + pub, called Suds and Duds. I could imagine some of the opening lines that go on in that bar.
