Agreed. I've got two memorable passwords right now. One happens to be taken
from a sentence that denotes what I think of the current level of security,
which makes it VERY memorable for me, anyway. :-)
So I would agree. no need to raise the ratioof! (either that's some new fangled
roof or the sound of someone being smacked for bringing up the topic, I'm not
sure which...)
I'd rather see discussion about the rest of what I was asking about, that is,
ways to sunset passwords that you've out and out lost or forgotten, or in
general, how to go about retrieving a password you've lost or killing it off
somehow.
