[BlogEntry] Your password will expire in 14 days. Do you want to change it?

My old employer never used to rotate passwords (including root!) but the new one is more security conscious, rotating passwords out every 60 days or something like that. So regularly I get this warning, "Your password will expire in 14 days. Do you want to change it?" I can still use my password. Once I change it, I can't go back to that one anymore. Isn't this like saying "The milk is going to go bad in 14 days, do you want to throw it out now?"
