Corrected entry: When Ben is crossing the street to enter National Archives building for the Gala, the street is wet but the pavement, steps, etc. around the building are completely dry.

Correction: There is no indication that it has been raining except that the streets are wet. Washington DC's Department of Public Works has street cleaners that operate on heavily traveled areas routinely or as requested by the public. It would not be unusual for the National Archives people to request a street cleaning before this big gala. The street cleaners operate by spraying a thin film of water on the street before sweeping the dirt, etc. into a hopper on the machine. It makes perfect sense as to why the streets could be wet. Also, they only suspend operations during the winter and this take place outside of that time.

Corrected entry: "Valley Forge" cannot be used as a government password. All government passwords must include a special character (and asterisk, an underscore, etc) and a number. For example, "Valley_Forge3" would have worked.

Correction: Government passwords for computers do require symbols, letters and numbers. This is not a computer (per se) but a terminal granting entry to the preservation room. A computer will deny a password that doesn't have the correct symbols but a terminal to the preservation room may well not. Therefore, she may have been able to use whatever password she wanted.
