So I am just two hops to the key in the web of trust. I'm probably just another hop or two by all the other keys, since I signed Adam and Simon's older keys, and I also have lots of paths to the keys via other people's keys. Even if I had never met any of these people personally, I'd still only be three or four hops away. Regards, Roger -- .''`.
