    They're holding at T-Minus 16 minutes. (you can see the countdown clock if you shift to full screen mode)

      Sounds like they're offloading the fuel -- at least partially -- for some reason.
      I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

          I thought it was supposed to be a countdown, not a countup - the minutes seem to be going up the last few times I checked.

            We have re-entered procedures at T-55 minutes and are reloading fuel. Liftoff is now expected at 08:00pm PDT / 11:00pm EDT / 03:00 UTC.

            In order to be sure that you'll watch the launch, we have insert subliminal pornographic footage into the webcast, don't be afraid if you have a boner while watching the giant phallus fly to the sky. We are not spaceX for no reason!

                For some reason, I don't think CrONos would be good in PR.

                    Both stages are full of liquid oxygen, fuel (RP-1), and helium. We are ready to go into the terminal count, which is the last 10 minutes of automated countdown. Step 110 has been completed; reports are we are clear for launch.
