Hmmm. It is a strange quirk of the brain that I cannot remember names, but I
have no trouble remembering numbers so I don't have to write down any of my
account numbers or PINs. You could disguise the information in an innocent
looking letter (eg in the form of telephone numbers and text) and even
unprotected no-one would have a clue what it was all about.

If it's a strong enough password (containing random upper and lower case and
punctuation), it might be a bit difficult to disguise!

And there lies the rub. Any password that is so complicated that you have to
write it down to remember it is ultimately no better than a simple password.
