    Jack, Jack, Jack... You're actually getting us all hyped that IFT4 is not too far off, hopefully. Now we just need SpaceX NOT to impede NSF's cameras from catching all the history in the making. Love your enthusiasm!!!

    thanks Jack for the great report. We're eagerly anticipating the full WDR on B11/S29! Sounds like it may be not this week, but more likely the next, but we'll be watching.
