Default Orchid for my office

Hey,

I was wondering what kind of orchid could survive and maybe thrive on my office desk.
There is quite a bit of light, but ambient humidity is dismal due to AC or heating.

Maybe a brassavola nodosa, or some Cattleya?

I actually asked that question, here's the thread to that discussion. Hopefully that helps a little bit.

The good thing about an office is they turn off the heat at night/over the weekend, so that would give whichever orchid you choose the chance to experience the temp drop for spikes. I bought one of those amaryllis in a vase (the ones for like $5) that are around for Christmas. I'm going to see how it does before I bring one of my paphs to the office.
