See ... the 'bad' News Now ...

http://www.nytimes.com/2010/11/25/nyregion/25nychaiti.html?_r=1&hp

People are turning to religion in times of stress — so, what's new???
And oh, one more bad news to post since we are talking about bad news in general. Discovery's final flight has been indefinitely postoponed.
Well, that seems to confirm my blog post from yesterday. Something seems to be seriously amiss with the shuttle program as it seeks to wind down.
Of course, NASA will definitely say 'no, no, this is normal ... this is usual ... we are only following standard procedures.'
But, can I utter aloud the unspoken fear — there is a great likelihood of something going wrong when the shuttle launches ...
Shall I say 'Amen?'
