Jim, the UAV Challenge is sponsored by the Queensland Government to 
build a robot aircraft which will automatically search for a person lost 
in the desert and drop a bottle of drink to them:

One of the UAV teams in Canberra has the famous Andrew "Tridge" Tridgell 
on it, programming a drone in Linux:

ps: You could also crowd-source pizza delivery: just have an app which 
finds people in your vicinity who have similar tastes and also want 
pizza and have transport.
