Space Flight with Stephen Hawking on eBay?

So the geek in me is intrigued and incredibly excited about this zero gravity flight with physicist Stephen Hawking that has gone up for bid on eBay.

Too bad in the one day since it opened it's up to the value of one month of my net income -- and there's 9 days left on the auction! But it is all for a good cause.

Still, I wish it was me that could win. :-)
