I like to use the scheme of thinking of some phrase, and using the first
letter of each word to form the password.

For example, here is a root password you *cannot* forget....

Phrase:  I Wish I Knew The Root Pass Word
Passwd:  iwiktrpw

(btw. I haven't used this one for some time)

Cheers,

Harry
