Urg. A lot of password crackers use "standard 1337" translations of
dictionary words, anyway. So, while 84dd455mu7h4 might be a slightly
better password than the same thing in standard English, it is not what
I would call a good password.

In short, I would argue that the above link is good for entertainment,
bad when used as a password generator.
