Re: [ISN] Oh Dan Geer, where art thou?

Ellen Messmer, in Network World, writes of Dan Geer:

Whatever happens, don't expect this loose cannon of the Internet to go
quietly into that dark night.
So -- If those who raise obvious questions are "loose cannon," what then

Victims? Pragmatists? Mercenaries?

And how, btw, should we feel about having to sign every message from our 
very own vanity domains?
