The International Sailing School closes this weekend

 Folks are gathering for a work weekend
to close the place down forever
... and today is Wil's birthday.

We bought the boat! (I love the overhang!!)

So, it turns out, Musk overruled his engineers and did not have flame diverters installed in the launch pad. This is what happened to the launch pad.

Some of the speculation among those who do this kind of thing is that debris from the destruction of the launch pad damaged the 8 engines that were visibly not functioning immediately after launch.

Expensive and reckless decision, if that turns out to be the cause.
