There are patterns that resemble butcher-block and would probably
look nice.

I figure if the "engineered" (fake wood) stuff is built to stand up
to the abuse of being on a floor, it could probably take ordinary
kitchen conditions.

Anyway, I've got some left over from a flooring project and thought I
would give it a go -- unless, of course, somebody can come up with a
discouraging word other than "That's the most f***ed up idea I EVER
heard!"

Heat issues aside, I think it's a good idea. I built a computer desk
and wanted a fairly rugged, but 'different' kind of work surface. A
friend is in the floor covering business and showed me a Monsanto
vinyl termed 'loose-lay'. Glue down isn't required and as you reason,
'good enuff to walk on' it would do what I wanted. Check out the pics:

It's also on the bar elsewhere in the same room:

I think there was less hardware in the lab in "Contact".


So uhhhhhh, what's with the peanuts? Is that to lure the aliens like you
would squirrels or something?
