Password storage?

[Jerry Feldman]

I use lastpass. Lastpass works on Windows, Linux, Android, Mac, ios.
Everything is encrypted. So, once you establish an account, you set up a
passphrase which is the only way to get at the passwords. They do not
store your passwords in the clear. I also use evernote for some things,
but it is much less secure.
