I notice that it shows the SM is already shown as shorter. This must
mean the folks higher up have already made the cahge to save lbs.

I do hope the name it Little Joe III,

It's always been planned (so far as I know) to use a smaller SM for abort
testing.

Thanks for the heads up. I was of the impression that the SM
shortening change, was just made, (Due to wt. issues).
