That is why I revoked my last public key (DGP) because I realized I
didn't use a strong enough passphrase. This time I made it pretty
strong! Not sure how good of an idea this was, but I took a book and
went to a certain page and copied the characters/words and added a
fairly long number I could memorize. Maybe 80+ characters, hope that is
secure enough. I figured I'd never forget my passphrase with this method
because I could go into any bookstore in the world and retrieve my code
again.
