Which reminds me, if you see me suddenly posting odd stuff, please reset my password to "blubbers". :D

Finally, I like/hate the idea of OpenID. If anyone can get into the loop at some point I'm doomed. Only thing I got through OpenID is very low level stuff, tier 4 and 5. At tier 3, only one person knows my password, and it's dictionary-proof. At 2, I have a single password nobody knows. At tier one, I use a long password combined with special chars when limited, and hardware-assisted login when not (I carry a card and a digital token at all times).
