Yup you're absolutely correct.  However, thats why it will never see widespread 
use - BLU folks aren't the average user and the average user will never jump 
through those kinds of hurdles.  PGP out of the box is a PIA, with some really 
neat features.  I've been doing some research, that at least I find 
interesting, to make it PGP useable; if I can ever get one of the papers 
published it may even make a neat talk.
