Well, don't know where to put it, as it's only 99% off-topic, but found it a bit interesting. My other hobby, apart form CRPGs, are mechanical wristwatches, and browsing one of the watch forums, I found this news:
In October 2008, Richard Garriott, the renowned video game designer and adventurer, will become the sixth private space explorer. Richard will conduct his space mission aboard the International Space Station, and during his flight, he intends to conduct a spacewalk, which would make him the first private individual to do so.
The info comes from Timezone forum:

The thread above is mostly about the Seiko Spring Drive watch Garriott will be wearing in space, but there are some other interesting information: I did not know, that Garriott is the son of a NASA astronaut. Maybe after a spacewalk he will eventually decide to make a nice single-player RPG space opera
