Short passwords are vulnerable - and by short, we mean 8-characters

Funny, the register's article points out that said password in fact works quite well.; it even refers to it and the strip in question directly

And no, what you are overlooking here is that it doesn't matter if the password is 4 elements, the cracker has no way of knowing anything more than there are 25 charecters there, and therefore must brute force each one. The ease comes in on the human side, where one uses personal memnotics associations to more easily create the long string needed.
