Oddly enough, neither automated (Enigmail in Thunderbird) nor manual (saved as text file, attempt to import with the --import command in GPG 1.4.16) works. Both indicate "no valid OpenPGP data found". This is unique in my experience. As for proving who you are, other than live and in person the options do seem rather limited. One paradigm that I like: Never mind key signing protocols: Just make a key, start using it to sign posts here, there and anywhere, and build a history for that key that will, eventually, persuade people that it really is yours. "How do I know you are who you say you are?" "Check my posting history in CPunks. Goes back a ways, and I have been signing my posts with the same key that's on the servers. So far the real me has not stepped up to disown it." Not bullet proof, but would you settle for slug resistant? BTW, why not use the keyserver network? Just curious; I figure one way of publicly presented a "public key" is much the same as any other... except that one way is very convenient and functionally reliable. :o)

I think it's Yahooism encoding, once you fixup the junk it imports fine...

Anyone can upload anyone's pubkey, though if no one does, there's maybe some small privacy metadata gain there.

encryption since the 1990's, not much even then, and then I used PGP
Regarding your old keys, if you still have access to them, you should either revoke or self-sign them as appropriate, for which revocation may be the most prudent choice.
I realize that I don't have a public key available; I'd like to publish it, but there probably haven't been any key-signings nearby.
Having a public key signed is not a prerequisite to publishing it. Well unless you count self signing, which is not strictly necessary either, but of such importance that gnupg does that operation upon keygen. You can iteratively republish as more signatures come in.
I'd like to prove who I am. At least initially, I though of using a Skype call, jimbell887, to talk to a few of the more credible people around here.
Sure someday. Though that gmail address you copied is an unknown.
That will, at least, reduce the level of doubt until I can get up to speed on this very irritating software.
Mailvelope is a browser plugin based webscraper. https://www.mailvelope.com/ If you have access to IMAP/POP and SMTP (each over TLS), either of the two below may be of interest and are likely more stable / reliable / secure than mailvelope. https://www.mailpile.is/ https://www.enigmail.net/

Mailvelope is a browser plugin based webscraper.
There is some more info on this here... https://www.mailvelope.com/en/faq#permissions Mailvelope sits in the browser literally watching the webmail. Since the webmail service is arbitrary HTML without well defined on the wire interface like IMAP/POP/SMTP, it's possible the website will change before mailvelope gets new glasses, at which point you can start bumping into things and possibly breaking bones. Even if people no longer have access to revoke old keys, they could look them up here and disclaim them by fingerprint in a keysigning statement... http://gpg.nebrwesleyan.edu/

I am Jim Bell, author of the Assassination Politics essay, at jdb10987@yahoo.com. I'm trying to implement public-key message signing with Mailvelope software, not with much success so far. I haven't really done signficant amounts of encryption since the 1990's, not much even then, and then I used PGP, and not with an email client. I realize that I don't have a public key available; I'd like to publish it, but there probably haven't been any key-signings nearby. I'm trying to (re-) learn the bare bones of this. This is my second attempt. The first attempt at signing simply lost my message, for reasons entirely unknown. I'd like to prove who I am. At least initially, I though of using a Skype call, jimbell887, to talk to a few of the more credible people around here. That will, at least, reduce the level of doubt until I can get up to speed on this very irritating software. I will put this message, and then have a signed copy of this message. I'd like to somehow include a copy of my public key, but as I said, I cannot yet figure out how do to that.

keybase's site doesn't work unless you enable javashit - that's a big security 'issue'. Also it was recommended by 'mirimir' so that's another reason not to use it.

I imported the key you posted. Or I imported 'a key' that
apparently comes from 'you' =)
However the signatures on the 2 signed messages you sent
don't seem to work (your mail client seems to be sending some
kind of messy text mixed with html or something like that or
there's something wrong on my end...)

Manually via standalone app. If on windows... https://www.gpg4win.org/ You'd need to import your private key to it.

West coast is saturated with many fine potential signatories / locations.

Oops. That's _ephemeral_ file sharing. Gone after one download. So I've just attached it.

Thank you very much, Mr. Young. I think what I'm going to do, in part, is to generate a video of me reciting my public key, and place the video on YouTube. While such a thing could conceivably be faked, it should be good enough for a few weeks.
In about two weeks, I'm going to make an announcement.

That works well since many recipients know the senders IRL, or have at least made their own estimated and acceptable trust analysis as to such.
While such a thing could conceivably be faked, it should be good enough for a few weeks.
A few notes... People should recite the full 40 character key fingerprint. This is because 16 hexchars is only 64 bits (and 8 is 32 bits), and short-key-id collision attacks happen (search something like pgp fingerprint collision), and all other recited fields of such a key are cloneable by the attacker into the attackers key. Those creating their first keys should consider giving them expiry dates. Simply to avoid confusion if early keys are later compromised in learning or other environments, or they roll out new keys with new options, management, and usage models as a result of such learning. And no one can keep a key both secure and usable forever. Create and keep a revocation certificate. Though one can assert a compromise and new key in a public signing statement, they are still handy to have, especially for those that can't stand on a soapbox IRL to make such statement (ie: a video). Gnupg 2.2.1 (and probably downstream gpg4win) now puts those revocation certs in handy printable text files by default upon key creation. https://gnupg.org/
I was unable to read/import the above Public Key Block. Perhaps the last couple of lines were mangled.
The old FA8754305BA01D9D key as posted by JYA imports ok as received. The keyservers take care to only carry keys that pass various lint checks and thus can always be imported from there. And they present them cleanly via HKPS or simple plaintext via the web for easy cut / paste. You could probably find some more keys by searching for name or email here... https://gpg.nebrwesleyan.edu/pks/lookup?search=jim+bell&fingerprint=on&hash=on&op=vindex https://gpg.nebrwesleyan.edu/pks/lookup?search=james+bell&fingerprint=on&hash=on&op=vindex https://gpg.nebrwesleyan.edu/
