This NY Times piece is the equivalent of:
-an editorial in 1960 reproaching Japan, saying they had no right to attack Pearl Harbor and that the US was justified in declaring war on the Empire.
-a scholarly article in 1931 stating that an iceberg has struck the Titanic, that the passengers will likely freeze to death in the water and that all nearby vessels should travel at flank speed toward the last know location of the mighty ocean liner.
-a DC constable in 1884 warning that local actor John Wilkes Booth doesn't seem right, and someone should tail him.
-DJs in 1992 telling listeners that Lynyrd Skynyrd is pronounced "Lĕh-'nérd 'Skin-'nérd"

Uh should that be 1941 for Japan, 1912 for the Titanic and 1865 for Booth?
Never mind, now I get it.
