Another interesting way to have a fairly strong password, but still be able to remember it is to come up with a sentence or phrase. Then take the first letter of each word, and use that as your password. It would be better if there were some numbers/special symbols in it, but it is a big improvement over most passwords. For example, you could take my signature and create a password of Dnmitaod,ftacatgwk - try a dictionary attack on that. (Probably too long a password for most places, but you get the idea.)
My passwords are never a word in any language, nor any of those words reverse, etc. The technique you describe, with special characters intermixed, is actually quite a good one, AIUI.

You have found the bank of Larn. I can explain it for you, but I can't understand it for you. I speak only for myself, and I am unanimous in that!
