RE: [Nolug] Android phone?

That's a wise move.

Actually I knew the original password, but apparently had changed it
sometime later and forgot to record it. Duh!

This is why I generate random passwords for each of my different web

Since my wife has access to the list, it came in handy while I was in a coma
in the hospital with a brain injury.
