Meet Han Solo (aka Harrison Ford)

I've still got Star Wars on the brain from our promotion with the USPS, so I was very pleasantly surprised when I saw that our "IT of the Week" (featured on our homepage) was to have lunch with Harrison Ford. The auction is just one of three extremely cool experiences being offered to benefit the E.O. Wilson Biodiversity Foundation, which is focused on global warming, poverty, and the loss of biodiversity. Whoever wins it though - do this Stars Wars geek a favor and ask him if Greedo truly shot first.
The other listings available would make for some truly once-in-a-lifetime gifts. You could win the rights to name a newly discovered orchid, or a newly discovered microbial species (I think the "Jeff Orchid" could have a nice ring to it, but my coworkers are arguing hard that naming the microbial species after me would be more appropriate.) Check out the details here.
