Re: Trip to ISS--get your credit cards out

It is a little confusing.

It took a couple of read-throughs to figure out what's going on (the really bad grammar and spelling didn't help).

It's a fund-raiser for an Alzheimer's Foundation in California (for, like, Actors and stuff, y'know?). Any proceeds over and above the $200,000 cost of Space Adventures' Orbital Qualification Package will be donated to the Foundation.

They're also auctioning off other things like a "Space Shuttle Launch!!!" (viewed from a couple of miles away), Mig flights, etc.

I actually really like the idea. Wring some bucks out of Hollywood (they've made plenty from sci-fi fans, after all), and help a good cause all at the same time.

I'd pay $6 million for the real thing, but...
