I am!  Was watching it live on the NASA channel.  Engine start...then 
abort to shutdown.  I heard someone say something about an overpressure 
condition causing it, but didn't catch what or where.  I'll presume it's 
in the propulsion system.  I also heard them say that they'll try again 
in about 72 hours (Tuesday) with a launch around 3:30 AM EDT, but didn't 
get the exact time.

My wife was watching with me as I tried to explain.  Her parting words 
were, "Sorry your rocket didn't work."

Yeah.  Sorry.
