Can you imagine?? I'm simply not willing to fool myself into thinking that I ahve security by posting a key and using PGP.

Unless you can post some proof that PGP is insecure, stop insisting it is.

PGP is really not the issue. The issue is more my security and the environment that I use PGP in. I don't have a trusted machine to run PGP on. Anyone who wants to can come up to machine and copy my secret keyring or they can even watch me typing my password in.

Threat, please?? Do people often stand over your shoulder as you type? Enter your office, point guns at you, and take a backup of your entire computer? Have you considered putting the secret keyring on a floppy and locking it in your desk/safe when you're not actually in the office? (Or home..)

So, I don't fool myself, and I don't use PGP, except for things like exchanging a one-time pad with someone when I've already sent the message out across another delivery mechanism, like on a floppy delivered my courier.

I don't follow. You're claiming that PGP is good enough to transfer OTPads, but not good enough to sign pseudononymous messages? Adam -- "It is seldom that liberty of any kind is lost all at once." -Hume
