passwd keeps complaining "The password fails the dictionary check - it is too 
simplistic" for fake words NOT in the dictionary but otherwise too simple for 
passwd's approval system.

I'm using the F17 alpha LiveCD and I'm just testing. I want a SIMPLE password 
and it won't let me use anything I can remember. I have to write down a temp 
password to do TESTING? This behavior is so completely asinine, it's like I 
have a f'n security mom parenting my password selection. I don't know who 
thinks it's their business to programmatically prevent me from choosing dogcrap 
as a password, but it's really irritating.

Oh and the password is hullop130. Nice thwart of an annoying, USELESS behavior, 
huh?
