There's been password security breaches with FB and Yahoo, so they have made people change passwords. It's a PITA yes, but people get your password and try it on banks, credit cards, etc. and if you're like me you use the same pw for multiple sites. I now have my bank pw unique, as is my Paypal and credit card stuff.

Funny! Among other things, your sense of humor is one thing I like about you. Who else would make an XXX rated Christmas CD?

I use keepass http://keepass.info/ a lock box for passwords. So I have an individual password for everything. Good for Windoze, Mac, and Android phones.

RE: shadow's joke

Not sure how he could have done it, but of course all the "Website" dialogue would have to be with an Indian accent.
