Kevin,
The flux capacitor should have been allowed under the flowchart as long as it met the single component maximum cost. I did check with Digikey and they no longer carry the line. Apparently there is a world wide shortage of material now that we are approaching a sunspot minimum. The plutonium is another problem as it does not pass the hazardous material test and the Mr. Fusion would not either for the smell of the garbage you put in. (Inspection list "Do you have anything that smells bad or can damage the carpet?") However, you could charge it up by having all the competition attendees hold hands and shuffle across the carpet. (I am not volunteering for the last person in the line, I am going to be busy that day!) See, only simple solutions, I don't drink Dew so my head is clear.
