Default Shuttle Launch?

ABC News is reporting that there has apparently been some cracks found in some
of the foam insulation.

So... will it go up tomorrow or not?

I would recommend that they call of the launch in that case. We don't
want to lose another shuttle crew....especially not on the 4th of July.

Looks like the answer is "no".

From http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/13666974/

NASA spokesman Dean Acosta said fixing the crack on the pad could take "days, to longer than that."
Another possibility might be to fly with the crack as is, but Acosta told MSNBC.com "I don't think
that an option."
