You know as well as I do that it's not about short passwords, but about your good passwords being unbreakable.

Password salting doesn't make your passwords unbreakable, n00b.

Quit reaching for straws, you know what I mean. I'm trying to save typing since I have to do it over and over and over for you guys. Look back, I've used qualifiers showing that I mean breakable in a practical sense, either by the time it would take to do a computational brute-force or the disk space it would take to hold a lookup table.
