Is this the full list?  I know there was a published list of "saints" and
"gods", but there were only about people in there.  The _full_ site password
list was compromised, so that would have been many thousands of people.

If you have a Perlmonks account, your password was obtained in plaintext.
If you use that password in many places, you need to change all instances of
use of that password ASAP.

Cheers,
