Today’s launch of the shuttle has been delayed at least until Monday and maybe until December. More details available later.

Good morning.

Yes, I was watching all of the shuttle stuff on my computer at work. Even watched the press conference afterward. Was ROTFLOL when launch Director Mike Leinbach, answering a question regarding whether the crack in the external tank insulation had an influence on their decision to postpone until November 30. Here he was on the stage in front of a large audience, including the live TV and he responded, " No, in fact, we had gone around the room and the final decision was made to hold until November 30 because of the hydrogen leak. We were headed for cookies when someone came over and said there was a crack in the ET insulation". ROTFLMAO!
