Can someone please explain to me, in as few mathematical equations as 
possible, why RSA public/private encryption works?  The way it looks to me 
in the documentation that came with REBOL, you have to send the recieving 
party the public key.  If this is the case, what stops some hacker from 
intercepting that public key and using it to decrypt the data?  How is this 
any different from using a syncronous encryption method and then just 
sending the encryption key along with the data?  It just doesn't make sense 
to me.

Matt
