You're probably right that most people won't be able to cope with the types of
passwords that my process generates. I do use that sort of process with the
systems I administer at work, and my users, though they complain about the
complexity of the passwords, do find that the mnemonic clue -- the sentence
-- helps them quite a bit. Of course my office, while not full of hackers or
crackers, is full of people who understand my paranoia and who are willing to
play along. ;-)
For outside folks who have occasional need to access our system, I do use a
simple password generator which creates passwords like gras4mos and
such-like.
