The only caveat with s/key is that you can't run the generator
program (which takes your secret passphrase and tosses out a
bunch of new one-time passwords) on an untrusted system True, which is why I run a generator on my J2ME-capable mobile phone. Works like a charm. See VeJOTP (http://fatsquirrel.org/software/vejotp/) and a couple of similar apps.
Well... sure the building blocks for Earth-like bodies are there... but wouldn't the gravitational dance of the two stars rip such bodies apart unless they rotate around the epicentre of the binary system? Which in turn would mean the nearest it could be would be as far a Jupiter's orbit or so? I mean... if I were sitting on Ganymede (or even on Titan) I'd hate for our sun to dance around like those two do. Talk about extreme seasons!
