70 years since Pearl Harbor

Today marks 70 years since the Pearl Harbor attack by the Japanese, starting our fight against a dedicated foe that lasted for years, and was only finally brought to an end with atomic bombs. Now, we get good-quality electronics and cars from them, eat sushi and teriyaki without batting an eye, and, in my case, I get to enjoy subtitled anime and translated manga on a regular basis. So, thanks to the veterans of that war for doing what needed to be done, first off... but, especially in troubling times like these, it's worth remembering that change is a constant, however slowly that change may happen.
