Hi Jeremy. Just curious. If the private key is created with a 
sufficient passphrase, how hard would it be for a cracker to use the 
private key to decrypt the data? It seems it would be difficult to 
use any sort of online encryption/decryption routine without the 
private keys stored on the server.
