[ale] Semi-OT: I'm changing my name to Griswald...

Robert,
I understand completely!  The relative value of the meeting in your 
wife's eyes versus yours is completely different in this situation.  
Maybe at a later meeting we can have those who missed this one get 
keysigned.  The keysigning ought to be a biannual ALE event anyway, 
since it is so important.  Maybe we could have this happen once a year 
at each location, Emory and KSU.  Someone would have to manage this 
based on Michael's example shown thru this meeting.  I am hoping I can 
make myself.  If I can go then I'll upload the key tonight.
