      I had thought of that, but since I give them enough grief from time to time that I wouldn't.

        When I was B4P's age, many many many wonderful years ago, I used give them their new password:
        for english users: notforget
        for afrikanns users: vergeetnie
        They didn't forget it again soon

          haha, I wish we could do that. We just have to default it to the same as their username...that way they SHOULD get it right the first time

            I Don't suppose it's in the QSECRET library then ?
