[EAS] ALERT: EAS Device passwords

[Tom Taggart]

All very nice....but many small stations were just able to
scrape enough together to buy the CAP device.  They don't
have IT guys on staff--they got some kid to get it talking
to the internet.  And most of the staff is 40+ (young folks
aren't getting into this business) and wouldn't know a NAT
router if it flew in and bit them. (A nat router--ya mean a
bug zapper? I have a router in the shop--didn't know you
were a wood worker?)

Plus my pet peeve: PASSWORDS! Have you every sat down and
counted the number of devices, web sites, etc. that demand
passwords?  I tried to order some paper topos from USGS
on-line--and it wouldn't let me until I dredged up what I
might have used for a password the last time I bought
something from their site.  Which would have been about 5
years ago. Any wonder that most rational people over the age
of 30 use Fluffy123 instead of QX456www_pS.44-zxy for a
password?
