No that would work, I wrote down the password you sent me and the two new ones
I chose and they are pretty memorable, I hope. Implement something that
generates a new password AND wipes out ALL the old ones in one fell swoop.
Then send me the new password, I'll discard the old autogenerated (which would
now not be in there anyway), put in the two new ones I chose as easy to
remember (sorry Todd, one is a personal slur on you but it's easy to remember)
and I will be all set.
This "wipe out all passwords and send a new one" is mighty powerful stuff. Use
with extreme caution. (but you can trust ME of course... so go for it...)
