Because of the in-your-face spam and the survey which precluded simply viewing the passwords after about the 4th one, I didn't read them all, but certainly got the drift.

And I understand the need for password protection on lots of things, but I get really tired of passwords. I have to keep a list of my own, because so many things require a password. This rant qualifies as a White Whine, and so it will be repeated there.
