No, it's not. I built this special page into the search engine because I generate random usernames and passwords for every site I use, e.g. epi0Bauqu.

I was picking up a friend (Todd V., long time lurker) for lunch, and he showed me the post since he uses the pwgen feature as well. I didn't know my password by heart, so he finally created an account and made the post.

I apologize then for the accusation, but for the sake of submitting better comments an explanation (even what you just wrote) would be much better than just submitting a link with no further rationale for submission.

Agreed. Perhaps I should have written it for him :)

Still not sure why it is getting voted down to -1 though, now that an explanation is under it.
