I use Schneier's Password Safe [v.3.14] for all My PW, passphrase &
Token storage in addition to the Secure Password Generator Extension for
Firefox.  The convenience of Password Safe is that by maintaining
accuracy of _all_ Login information I can store the Encrypted Data File
off My PC along with copies of My secring, pubring & Revocation Certs
just in case physical disaster should happen to either Myself or My PC.
