Derek's point is totally valid. SpaceX and their Falcon Fanboy Society
told us the same thing after Flight No.2 went splash (and their
fanboys entertained us mightily by trying to explain how Flight No.2
was really a *success*.) The downtime ended up being five months
longer than after Flight No.1 went kablooey.
