[sci.space.shuttle] New un-official launch date: Sept. 26

I should clarify myself before too many people get confused.  The date of
Sept. 26 is "unofficially official".  NASA is holding off on the
announcement of an official launch date until after the flight readiness
review.  However, the information I have received is that if the review
goes well (nothing else comes up as a problem) then they will announce the
26th as the launch date.

Now watch them push it back a day just to make a liar out of me.....
