 When it comes to long phrases used to defeat recent advances in
 password cracking, bigger isn't necessarily better, particularly when
 the phrases adhere to grammatical rules.

This must be great news to all the people under the age of 20, who seem quite 
unable to either spell or use grammatically correct sentences.

Just as an aside, I heard yesterday that President Teddy Roosevelt issued 1000 
executive orders, one of which was to require that words be spelled 
phonetically as in “ENUF” instead of enough!
