DARRYL:  i feel main anecdote used by author was nonsequitor to his main
point: fact was, the user used the same email account for business and
pleasure. The pleasure company had an easy to hack host system. That has
nothing to do with the uses failure to use a strong password or even to
change passwords.

I think it was not really very well written, took too long to make the
point, and worse didn't even state the real issue.

Or maybe I had so much trouble getting past the author's uncle Remus style
I nodded off.
