Microsoft says "Write down your passwords" ?

Need I say
more?
Companies should not ban employees from writing down
their passwords because such bans force people to use the same weak term
on many systems, according to a Microsoft security guru.
Speaking on the opening day of a conference hosted by Australia's national
Computer Emergency Response Team, or AusCERT, Microsoft's Jesper Johansson
said that the security industry has been giving out the wrong advice to
users by telling them not to write down their passwords. Johansson is senior
program manager for security policy at Microsoft.
Now where did I put that piece of paper I wrote the certifier
all my password(s) on?
