Watching DU3 launch is rather like watching your child get born...
At least that's the thought that strikes me...

You hope everything will turn out well...No accidents or injuries...

And you sure as hell don't know how long this will take!

4. I was thinking it was like all the folks camped out for the stores to open on Black Friday
I hope no DUers get trampled in the transition :)

6. That works too...
I rather doubt anyone will get trampled...

It's hard to do that, electronically!
