no "forgot my password" link?

I forgot my password for a minute and couldn't log in.

during this minute I've noticed there's no way to retrieve a forgotten password...

have i missed something?
if so, there should be a more obvious location for this link - such as the "user name or password is incorrect" page.

and if there isn't such a link already - there should be...
i get forgetful once in a while...

You can have your password sent to your email, it normally pops up when you fail to log in as an option? If it isn't then something fishy is going on.

You have entered an invalid username or password. Please press the back button, enter the correct details and try again. Don't forget that the password is case sensitive. Forgotten your password? https://www.physicsforums.com/login.php?do=lostpw"
You have used 1 out of 5 login attempts. After all 5 have been used, you will be unable to login for 15 minutes.

You should see this. The link works btw.
