FWIW I usually use a gadget called 'apg' to generate random passwords. It has a mode in which it will only produce strings that are pronounceable (sometimes just barely so), which I find a great aid to memorability. For example, I can recall my home WEP key easily even though I almost never see it. Usually setting a minimum of 8 characters produces a satisfactory result.
If I want something much longer than that, I make up a phrase or sentence using one or two random strings from apg as "words". I have not tested the strength of these choices, but I'm satisfied that they produce something better than I would without mechanical aid. -- Mark H. Wood, Lead System Programmer [EMAIL PROTECTED] Typically when a software vendor says that a product is "intuitive" he means the exact opposite.
