Hello Everyone,

No launch today due to a faulty fuel tank sensor. Better luck tomorrow. I
lucked out and got a phone call from a friend who told us about the aborted
mission. I was able to turn around and get out of traffic before we really
got clogged in. At the location we were when I received the call, we would
have been lucky to get to where we were headed by launch time due to the
horrible traffic.

Looks like I will go back late tonight and stay the night to avoid the
traffic tomorrow.

Thanks to all who called or emailed about the scrubbed mission for today.
Hopefully I will get some neat pictures to share if they launch tomorrow and
there are no clouds.

Take care,
Greg
