How does HTML authenticate you?
Tell me, do people pretend to be you on the net? Do people send mail
claiming to be from you? Would you be worried if someone sent a death
threat to someone else and signed it with your name?
Perhaps *you* may not have a reason to do something, but that doesn't
mean that others may not have a reason. If I have a chance/choice,
anything that I send via the 'net will have some sort of authentication
with it.
