[0] To be perfectly honest, the Wife has access to the safety deposit box with the BigBookO'Passwords[tm], just in case I step in front of a bus. She's *nix literate (finally!) and knows how to access everything, but she's never seen reason to use root, even on her own computers (Slackware and BSD), so she doesn't.
