      <![CDATA[Much of what was discussed was doing all the background work to crack the hash and hash functions rather than someone sitting there figuring out one person's password and repeatedly trying to log in.

      <![CDATA[One easy way to make a long password is to add together all the short random character one you already have memorized, then you only have to remember what sequence you used them in.<br>
