1148935 2010-10-31 00:23:00 Morgenmuffel: I didn't even know the number pads had letter on them :(

Agent_24: I'm the same. I couldn't tell you my home's alarm code if my life depended on it. It's programmed into my hands though.

pctek: 48 passwords?????!

1148936 2010-10-31 01:29:00 PCTek - can you remember next week's winning Lotto number? tuiruru (12277)
1148937 2010-10-31 10:41:00 In my case, I chose my PIN because it was part of an old phone number.

No problem remembering it. Same for my old bank account number, but not my new one...

pctek; your pw's aren't like pctekworkvpn, pctekworkemail, pctekhomelogin, pctekhomeNAS, etc etc?

No.
Some of them were assigned from suppliers.
Theres the bank one, its long and has various letters and numbers.
The usual sort of decnt pwords. The only kind of lame one is the one for here and no it doesn't involve my name or anyone elses name that I know. Or nickbnames. Or DOBs. Or pets.


I can remember car regos, mine, my previous one, husbands.
I can remember ph number, cells as well, friends too, old ph number, the one before that and the one before that too.

1148942 2010-10-31 21:57:00 I can remember complicated maths/finance/physics formulas and long number sets (e.g. bank accounts) from years ago, but I can't easily recall shorter set of numbers (useless really), e.g. my brothers/sisters phone numbers, or simple car plate numbers, unless if I include another long number (mentally) to it sometimes - often a long bank account number. Then can't recall their names, to the phone numbers, and exactly how many siblings I have left. My sisters are good at name recalling though, and letters on keypads. kahawai chaser (3545)
1148943 2010-10-31 21:58:00 it's only 4 numbers and even without any numbers or letters, you should be able to remember the "the positions" where you normally press... :D SKT174 (1319)
1148944 2010-10-31 22:08:00 I've very rarely seen an ATM that does have letters. Or maybe I just don't look for them.

How on earth do you get on with EFTPOS machines, many of which also don't have letters??
