Funny you should mention it....

On other news, I'mve been working in my industry for about 7 years now and have been directly involved on 5 GEO missions (and played a supporting role on about 15 others). In this time, I have never run into what we've run into now...a day before we were going to ship the satellite for launch, we ran into a potentially mission-ending problem. It's good we found it before launch, but the level of insanity we're dealing with right is so far out of anything I ever expected to deal with. Timing is funny. If it happened after launch, we'd be similarly crazy but running down another path. Insane.
