Sean,
Plus ca change, plus c'est le meme chose.

Of course the past is with us:  look at Bob 
Metcalfe's RFC 602 (1973).  Have we fixed 
anything over the nearly 30 years?  How 
recently have you seen a password on a Post-It?
How many folks have their spouse's/significant other's/
offspring's name as a password?

How many uninstalled fixes can dance on a port?

Peter
