I assume it's everyone, and so keep separate "hashed-by-me" passwords
for any new service that needs a password.

It's easy enough to encrypt your password list using (gpg|password
safe|keepass|...), and you're reasonably protected from morons.  At
least, if the morons let your password out, it doesn't work for any
*OTHER* service...
