    When I couldn't get back into my Facebook account some years ago, I had to
    send them a picture of my Drivers License. They also would take a passport.

    If whatever your service is that's locked you out, try reaching out to their customer service. If, like google, they have none for their free accounts, create a new one and abandon the old one. Unless you're paying for this
    account or service, chances are you're SOL.

    It's "The Doctor", a well-known imbecile in the Doctor Who and TV
    newsgroups who has not got the ability to write anything comprehensible
    (one nickname for the fool is "Gobbledegook"). Most sane people have
    killfiled or ignore the fool.

    Is it that you can't log into your Mac? What part of your password
    reset failed?

    If you want people to guess about what you need, just keep
    right (right) on doing what you're doing.

    Having said all that, I'm curious what the options are, though,
    because I don't know how I'd fix this with a Mac. With Linux,
    and with physical access to the computer, I'd boot a USB stick with
    Linux, mount the volume, chroot to the mount, and run passwd.
    I'm not sure if there's a Mac equivalent to that.
