Re: Need to generate passwords

Hi, all:

I recommend choosing a "random" real word, as described in this
thread, then interspersing digits and/or allowed special characters,
to make it very "hard to guess" and not prone to a "dictionary"
based attack.

For example, suppose the word (chosen at "random", by whatever
means, such as dart-throwing, etc.) turns out to be "Monday".
I could construct "m5o4n3d2a1y" (truncate if needed to 10 chars.).

This is not that hard to remember; you remember the word, e.g.,
"monday", and the "digits", e.g. "54321".

Pretty secure, yes?  But, don't ever write it down anywhere! :-)
