I agree.  People who say "don't write down your password" must either
have few or easy passwords (or a very good memory).
But good passwords aren't always easy and if you use different
passwords for different puposes you need more than a few.

There is no need to write down a password if you use "sunny4" on 123
websites to log into your accounts, to access your online banking and to
receive your e-mails.  But if you grant each account or webservice his
own "good" password, you sure will get problems when not writing them
down.
