Seriously, I use KeePass password database to keep track of all of my<br>
passwords. But the library keeps it easy and uses your phone number.<br>
That way anyone who knows my card number can check out bomb making<br>
books without me knowing, until I have to pay the late fines.<br>
<br>
Another note, how often is the idea of using foreign languages used in<br>
generating passwords? With accented characters, you would have more<br>
than 26 alpha characters. My fear is always not having those<br>
characters easily available on the computer I'm using. Also, using<br>
somewhat common phrases/quotes in a foreign language helps with<br>
generating passwords.<br>
