I 'm pretty inclined to think that Jeff was being sarcastic with that comment...

Unless you are fortuneate enough to have your own office where you never leave
your door open or unlocked when you are out and never let anyone shoulder surf,
I would not suggest this.  But even then the janitorial staff usually has a key
and they can get in so this is never a wise choice.  Unless of course it's in a
1 pt font where you have to squint your eyes to even look at it, and doing that
for any prolonged period of time will drive you nuts!  Taped to your monitor is
not a very secure place.
