For a while I've wanted to combine one of these mnemonic code generators with an NLP engine to do something like output a short story as the passphrase, even a humorous onem with the key encoded in the story itself (remember the gist of the story and that's sufficient to reconstruct the key). Also, obligatory link about the failures of unsanitized word lists: http://iam.peteashton.com/keep-calm-rape-tshirt-amazon/ It can really backfire to get one of these things wrong.
