That's why I no longer login to my FB account.

I can't figure it out right now because I have a lot of catch-up reading to do, 
but I'll get to it later on.  I actually had to use 12345 as a pw to login to 
the water dept about 8 years ago and when there was someone there to answer the 
phone that morning with the knowledge to make things right, I asked how come 
their system wouldn't accept alpha-numeric characters.  They couldn't explain 
it, but I was given a temp pw which I logged into later and changed to what I 
wanted.
