That *is* a coincidence.

Today during non-fire testing, one of the three main rockets on the
Titan booster tested bad.  During a lull in the rain, our crew of
sixteen technicians, unbolted the rocket and replaced it with a spare.
It took 143 minutes and they finished just before the rain started
again.

The new engine tested well in situ, and the Thanksgiving launch of the
first Turkey in Space is scheduled to launch Thursday at 10AM EST as
planned.    If I may quote you, "Now it works again".
