OT but thought you'd like this....

I had to change my password everyday at one job for security reasons.
There was a woman in the office that dressed really funky, got her
clothes from thrift shops. So I looked at her outfits daily and went
from there. Here are some a remember

80's prom Queen
1969 Summer of Luv Flower Child
Harley-D sidewalk commando
Swap meet reject 

And if I forgot my password I just looked at her.

Hi,

What's the consensus on this list on easy-to-remember long
passphrases vs short, but complex passwords?

There was a lot of talk about this on the last TechEd Europe, but
AFAICT, there wasn't ever a consensus, not the keynotes I was on at
least.

BW,

Sorin
