Nobody can call themselves a real modder unless they've performed an L1 bridge fill in with pencil or rear window defroster kit or sat next to a computer with a Delta 60mm 8000 rpm fan for hours on end just to get their TBird 1333 to run at 1450 Mhz. I think I'm deaf in my left ear because of it. If you've never heard a Delta fan... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yfBGy0FuSGQ

I miss those days...

Someone said a few posts back that copper is a better conductor than the paste (which makes sense), but even with lapping can you really get rid of enough of the imperfections in the surfaces so you don't need paste at all?
No. Unless you have a Lapmaster setup and media that goes down to something less than 0.5 micron (500 nanometers), you are still going to have surface imperfections and create air gaps. However, you would need a trivial amount of goop with a good finish.
