I don't have my computer save my Yahoo! username and password - why
would I do it for LUGNET?

Dunno.  Point being that you can, if you want to.  When you said...

"Once I hear I can login ONCE with this password I refuse to put any effort
  into holding onto or remembering and change it to something I can remember
  without effort, I'll do it."

...you seemed to be saying that you couldn't -- that you had to log in each
time rather than just once.

But I don't _want_ to, and to suggest that as an alternative to
carrying around a machine-generated password seems a little
boneheaded.  I don't _want_ to leave myself logged into Lugnet just
like I don't _want_ to leave myself logged into Yahoo!  It's dumb to
do so.  Maybe less dumb now with Lugnet, but what about when real
buying and selling can be done here?

As a matter of fact I DID log in permanently today at work, on my
primary machine, which is locked whenever I step away from it
(religiously).  But I still don't like it.  I have little choice right
now, though, as this doesn't seem to be a priority.
