Oh, well after Raymond says that, Tom Cruise's character (Charlie if I remember correctly) says "Well we're not going back to Cincinnati."

I'm happy when people can remember passwords. The most annoying part of my job is listening to people tell me the following.

1. The stupid computer screwed up and forgot my password.
2. Why do we have to change our passwords every 90 days, that's just stupid, who can remember passwords when they change all the time?

As their network admin I have to remember lots of passwords to stuff. I'm guessing it's around 30 that I use on a regular basis for stuff in the server room. Yet it's intolerable that most people should be expected to have two passwords and change them quarterly.

Don't get me wrong my users are cool people. I just happen to get their calls when they are frustrated and need someone to agree that computers suck and give a helping hand.
