Jeffery,

May I suggest using Mayan names/words combined with special  
characters and numbers.  No one will every figure those out.  Well,  
maybe not.  a few years ago a co-worker claimed to have a program he  
wrote in college that could crack any password.  for months I didn't  
pay attention to him.  then, finally, i said... ok... what's my  
password.  He knew it!!!  I was miffed and puzzled.  A couple of  
years later another colleague told me that he had watched me type it  
over my shoulder.  So much for strong passwords!

Anyway, I've been following your comments for some time with more  
than the usual interest as I am an ex-pat New Orleanian.  Haven't  
been back since Katrina but hope to come for Tulane's next Maya  
seminar.  I've been in the  Philadelphia area since 1977 but my roots  
are still in N'Awlins.

Best,

Brian
