Module Y3 Soldiers Forward

This is Steven Petrick Posting.

Work on Module Y3 continues. The SSDs have been reviewed and checked repeatedly by various volunteers, and Jean Sexton has prepared her report. SVC is reviewing ship descriptions, and there is currently no reason the product will not reach press date on time and on budget. At least in a perfect world. Between now and press date there are going to be distractions. Things that need to be done that are not part of getting Module Y3 finished. Some of these are anticipated (almost scheduled events even if there appearance is more or less random), some are going to be completely unanticipated. Having a retired General drop by for a visit was not anticipated, and it would not have been courteous to avoid meeting him and talking about things, but that takes time, and time has to be made up.

Fortunately it is not like "war". In war when you make a mistake you often have to pay for it in the blood of your troops. I will pay for my errors with a little less sleep here and there, something I am grateful for.
