<p>Today&#8217;s the anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor. Apparently the Japanese planned to deliver a declaration of war 30 minutes before the bombs were to rain down, but due to some slow work from the Japanese embassy in Washington, the message didn&#8217;t arrive in time. The good news is that the Japanese embassy was under surveillance, and Washington had the message unencrypted before the embassy did. They contacted Hawaii and <a href="http://www.cyclelicio.us/2009/12/bike-messenger-delivered-pearl-harbor.html">sent a bike messenger to deliver the message</a>, but the bad news is that it was two hours after the start of the attack. If they find this messenger, they should put his skinny jeans and Chrome bag in the messenger hall of fame.</p>
