Good for these two- they're not getting flustered, staying professional and smiling.  Genuine enthusiasm is what I get from them.

They'll get the glitches worked out.  Like not trying to re-stream a multicast stream with the present setup... :-)p

"How are you coming along with that Helium there, Zack?".  Not quite what you would here with a NASA broadcast.  However, since someone earlier said a Helium tank was a problem earlier I'm rather curious myself.

Refresh didn't work...but the third button from the right on the flash toolbar at the bottom is for aspect ratio...hit that once and it'll be all good.

Ok guys, given this is a strange kinda webcast, we'll take as many screenshots as possible, especially during launch and flight, so feel free to post as many as you can all grab and we should have a decent pictorial overview of the launch plus the text - which we'll look after.

What I suggest for those who want to do this is to use paint.net..

Copy and paste 3-5 images. Use the select tool to roughly select the image and save as jpeg..

"This webcast, as well as launch footage, will be posted on our website, www.spacex.com"

There will also be a recording of launch here, not right after/during flight, will be a few hours, but there will be one tonight.  :)
