A Conversation for Desperately Seeking Password Creation Strategies

Since a password should be random and unguessable (is that a word?), I have always figured that dreams are about as personal and secret as you can get. When it comes to random, I can't even control about what happens in my dreams, how could anyone else?? Therefore, whenever I have to think up a password I think of the last dream I had and what the subject/main character/setting of it was. That way I know It will be very difficult for anyone else to get.

The trouble with my dreams is I tend to forget them. In fact, I've noticed a lot of these methods are so clever that they could end up being safe even from the person themselves. Or should that be themself? Him/herself? Anyway. See Magnolia's cute black hole theory.

I usually forget my dreams after a day or so also, but if i use a topic as a password i can usually remember the word. Using the dream is just a random way i come up with a word to remember as a password.

Oh, fair enough then. By the way, have you noticed that the topic heading is misspelt?

Some strange force removed the "I" key as I was typing, without my noticing.
