Aside for entertainment purposes: at one point, the root
password for the UNIX systems I ran in the Caltech High
Energy Physics group was derived from Al's name, but through
a level of punning indirection. I believe Mark Bartelt
came up with it.
Later we decided to change it. I believe I chose the
successor, which continued the UNIX-licensing scheme, but
in a different direction:
*UiaTMoBL
The systems that had either of these passwords are long-
since turned off.
