wow, a bash script freak here and I never thought of this until now.
makes me wonder how dumb i really am!


I find, all the encryption/password stuff isn't necessary if you lead a
normal life.  A theif will find more value in your hardware versus your
intelligence.  And, all that extra energy used by putting in a password
everyday will be useless.  All in all, best to try to remember the
wife's birthday or anniversery, versus trying to hide the affair --
unless she's better looking. ;-)
