Launch metaphor: I had the opportunity to follow the countdown to today's launch very closely...as some may know the lift off ocurred at the very last minute of today's window, because launch officials were concerned about cloud cover which until that minute was unacceptable. Imagine the situation and the tension: they have dozens of people staffing the launch, and hundreds watching anxiously, the rocket is fueled, the satellites, range safety, everything is ready to go...except for mother nature. Everyone sits there impatiently waiting for what was hoped to be a passing front to go by so they could fly. If the weather is unacceptable, they have to stand down for a day; if it clears up, they go. As it happened the weather cleared (just in time!) and we had a successful launch. I think (hope!) the G* service launch is a little like that. Everything is ready, except maybe one or two little things, maybe things almost as outside of management's control as the weather....and we're waiting for them to be cleared and then we go!
