<font size="3">> I now have about 400 passwords, and I'm
supposed to remember them?</font>
<br>
<br>
<font size="3">I have a password system that allows me to create
a unique password for each site, but I can figure out what it is
by the
system if I have forgotten it. I keep a list for backup (on
paper),
but this has served me well. Obviously I don't want to go into
too
much detail, but everything that needs a password has one unique
feature,
and one feature tying it to a group. Since you all are clever
people,
you can figure something out. Add a common element to make the
passwords
long enough (passphrase or acronym) and you are good to go. You
wind
up with some combination of [common part + group part + unique
part]
The hardest part is changing all the passwords!</font>
<br>
<br>
<font size="3">And after a 35 year career as an engineer with one
foot
in the IT world, I am amused to say that it was my 80-year-old
father who
provided me with the system. I'm not sure I ever would have
thought of it on my own. I don't know where he got it from, but
I'm
grateful for how much easier my modern life is.</font>

I can't say for all, but I just bought a "U" window AC unit.
There is an app for<br>
it you have to down load. When we did, it wanted access to
everything
on our<br>
smart phone. So we deleted the app. It doesn't need access
to anything on <br>
my smart phone. <br>
<br>
This how "smart" thing is getting rediculous. All these
web sites that require a <br>
log on to even "window" shop. I now have about 400 passwords,
and I'm supposed to remember them? Same thing with apps. If
I can go to a site with<br>
my browser on my desk top, WHY do I need an app to do the same
thing on
my<br>
cell phone? I've quit going to all those sites. But I doubt
they will get the <br>
message.<br>
