And there was a hardware failure -- all of a sudden the rocket reported
behavior well outside the capability of an Ariane 4.  Perhaps the most
likely cause was a warp in the space-time continuum :-) so aborting the
journey of this Ariane 4 is certainly appropriate.

Perhaps Microsoft could show them how to hand out stickers "This software
validated for use on Ariane 5."
