Oh definitely.
I know that personally, with the correct level alcohol added to my system, my resistance drops to zero.
Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

(PhysOrg.com) -- A Japanese scientist who "likes alcohol very much" has discovered that soaking samples of material in hot party drinks for 24 hours turns them into superconductors at ambient temperature.
The scientist, Dr. Yoshihiko Takano of the National Institute for Materials Science (NIMS) in Tsukuba, Japan, made the discovery after a party, soaking samples of a potential superconductor in hot alcoholic drinks before testing them next day for superconductivity. The commercial alcoholic beverages, especially wine, were much more effective than either water or pure alcohol.

Interested in superconductors?
Oh definitely.
I know that personally, with the correct level alcohol added to my system, my resistance drops to zero.
I have the identical problem!
Hey, hot superconductors are right up there with cold fusion. Assuming that you think 7°K is hot.
I'm heavily invested in physical palladium, so I'm always hoping the Pons/Fleichman parlor trick ends up powering cities.
So, hoping that single malt Scotch can be incorporated into a cyclotron isn't much of a stretch.
So long as it isn’t smoky Islay malts. I’d hate for them to be any more expensive than they are already.
Caol Ila, mmm, mmm, mmm.
