Fark.com reports that the Pepsi company is having a competition this summer where one lucky 7-UP purchaser will win a trip into space. [actually a suborbital venture on the first spaceplane developed using the SpaceShipOne design] That's a bit of a step up from the Willy Wonka factory tour - although I doubt the winner will find a golden ticket in the bottle - just a little rubber seal in the cap. Sigh.
