Here's a car analogy for you: This is like having a car that automatically starts up for you and opens the doors when you walk by. The manufacturer, however, neglected to require the key fob to be anywhere nearby, so any time ANYONE walks by, the car door opens and the car starts up.

What about using the same password for everything, just changing them *all* every 2-3 months?

You mean one... hundred... billion?

It's spelt Tennant (see the Criticism & Review section)

The clinics that accept my health insurance all use Epic. I've gotten in the habit of asking all the docs how they like it. They universally respond (to butcher a Churchill quote):

[Epic] is the worst form of [EHR] except for all those other forms that [I] have been tried.

Bull. This is the WHOLE POINT of "avoiding relapse into crime." Once they're out of prison, they're welcomed back into society.

Going to use the toilet must be a terrifying experience for you...

Yes, yes, and yes... and it is a GREAT plan.
Good ideas:
"My car was stolen. I'll contact the police."
"My money was stolen at gunpoint. I'll contact my insurance company/security."
"I was just raped. Contact the authorities."

Bad Ideas:
"My car was stolen, I'll steal this guy's car to make up for it."
"My money was stolen at gunpoint. I'll just have to steal it back (and swipe that new TV while I'm at it)."
"I was just raped. I'll contact my well-endowed violence-prone brother to rape my attacker's children. All of them."

See?

Nah, it's more like a gulf than a strait.

Amen! Preach on, my brother!

Please tell me you've never rented Ninja Scrolls or Afro Samurai for your kids to watch...

And that would be a good thing!

In the late 1700's, blacks were inferior to whites. People believed that slavery was better than freedom for blacks due to their brutish nature. The kind white masters could civilize them, see?
By today's standards, all of those statements are blatantly racist. In their own time, they were mainstream belief.
You're criticizing men who (as a group, if not individually) were more enlightened than the society they lived in because they haven't had the 200 years of research and knowledge that you do.
Have you never read 'Frankenstein,' 'Treasure Island,' 'Little Black Sambo,' or other books from that era?
