update
Ground crews have already fallen a dozen hours behind schedule
in preparing the shuttle for its trip to the Cape, but officials
say it's not serious since there's much less damage this time.
The major task now, one that takes 5 days, is the draining of
fuel from the OMS.  Yesterday they prepared to do this.  They
also have to test the hydraulic fuel and replace any damaged
or lost tiles with foam ones to protect surrounding tiles on
the trip to the Cape.

Engle and Truly yesterday were ordered to have medical examinations.
