That really is a hoot.  

I've stayed away from commenting on this because I disagree with the entire program effort...but the comment you and others have made about "perfect" vrs "absolutely perfect"...drew me in.

With the current issue of the "bird" we are not talking about the difference between perfect and almost perfect we are talking about a major error (tossing without the antenna on) which has deleted significant payload capability.  

It is reasonable to ask "why this happened".
