Another quote from Barsoomers link.
"
"A Because of the difficulties collecting samples through the summer, some of our most interesting science has been pushed right to the end of the mission. We are scurrying frantically to do these really important final tasks. One is to try and make the case there are organic materials on Mars at this site, and we haven't been able to do that yet. But we have some ideas on how we might accomplish that. Either a yes or a no would be good, not a maybe."
the race is on.
