John, all it proves is that we learned to completely ignore messages from you very quickly. Perhaps lots of people simply kill-filed you, while others (such as me) see your name in the [From:] and move on to the next message without reading. I have verified messages before. Sometimes, when somebody says something stupid or out-of-character, I verify the message and then go back and verify their more-normal messages to make sure the public key is the same on both. Hence signing all messages is reasonable, since it helps establish a consistency of pattern used to identify you as much as your signature is. I'll grant you that I seldom verify (or sign) messages, but that's mostly because it's a pain for me to do so. I'd do it if it were easier, and I appreciate that others go to that effort.

Ambivalence is the TRUE opiate of the masses. -Fringe Ryder-
