	One argument to be made here is that the pizza store owner should 
pick up the cost of the delivery with no tip required for the simple reason 
that many people buy a pizza because it is available for delivery.  That's 
the carrot the pizza owners use -- they provide that service to entice you 
to order the pizza.  Otherwise, you may not order pizza and you'd just 
make due with what is available.

	On the other hand, I generally tip the pizza guy.
