We are not talking the same language, Manu: what I'm meaning is 
that you are a smart guy, a programmer, and for sure you 
"understand computer security", still you shared a password among 
a few sites, and worst, you missed a _clear warning_ when you 
registered to mailman.

Assumed that I agree with you regarding the proactive approach of 
the others in security, I still state that nothing can be gained 
without a proactive approach of myself regarding security.
