Just to make sure, I checked my message as it appeared on the newsgroup, and
my PGP signature does verify.
Mr. Cooley, in claiming that my PGP signature doesn't verify, you are
implicitly claiming that you are in possession of my public key so that you
could verify it. I think that you are not only a damn liar, but a liar
stupid enough that you didn't even realize how easily you can be called. If
you have my public key, post it in your response. And while you're doing
that, remember that others will then be able to check my message and
discover that it *does* verify. So you're caught either way.
It really is hilarious. In attempting to discredit PGP, you've given a large
amount of publicity to it, and demonstrated that an attempt to discredit it
can easily be fended off. You're so pathetic that I don't even mind that
you've tried to paint me as a fraud.
