That is a really bad way to set and remember passwords for most people. It's so complex, it must take a couple of minutes to calculate the password every time. Security that people actually USE, needs to be simple.

I usually use sentances with 4 or so words, that is odd enough to remember. I combine that with keepass safe for sites i only log into on my computers and synch it using dropbox. I also have access to it on my iphone and ipad. The combination of these techniques enable me to log into most sites without a password manager and all of them on the fly.
