-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- The idea of DigiCash is a good one, and there have been many good ideas on it, but it will be hard to implement it in the US. The IRS will want to stop it cold as it gets around them, some people will fear it "The cash for PEDOPHILES", and Joe Blow will probably have a tough time getting used to it as it is very new to him. Another problem is being able to trust the bank who holds the notes. It will have to be a stable institution which does this, one that the IRS most likely has a grip on, or can get one. The SEC will probably want their way also. As to having PGP on a unix box, and the risks of this, I have a solution to this. What I do is keep my key on my Linux box at home, and have my mail forwarded there. It then is simple to reply and decode messages. pgpdaemon and pgpsendmail also help a lot with the quick encodes and decodes. As to tank rounds, aren't we getting a bit off track here? -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.6 iQCVAgUBLl3cdHDkimqwdwa5AQEO4wP/ZBX5ecquikmxVHVGDz7Hutg8ryX1taJK l4aVy10uHAv5wE4KptFq3k5enqKsdot3nJsG33GLCfsrcpm2qz1snwAvh+5WmK6y f7AnSJlx671dM9334qoKAuVpLahWFpmmWuoROSXx4rx3zSVIXKjkrWaSJLAHP0Ay cAY0quBcfhw= =r48u -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
