I agree! I can add a block that looks like PGP signature, but only
a handful of people will catch it because most of us never 
check the signature. If it makes you happy, put it on. But I for
one don't know how to decryt it, and don't have a great burning
desire to aquire the software to do it. I've never seen any of
these fake posts. It could be because I kill off most of the silly
name calling that comes along.
