You might have a winning business model there. Advertise the coffee shop as a shelter from EMPs and solar flares. Put in shelves by the door, where patrons can park their tinfoil hats, while in your sanctuary.

It's not so much the techies that I'd like to get away from as the idiots with the long, loud, and annoying ringtones that they don't recognize when playing on their own phones.

Would I pay for a cup of coffee at a store where that couldn't happen? You betcha.
