    If you still aren't working, chances are you should have never been in the field in the first place. There's jobs. They exist. Some of them are specialized. Some of them are stupid.

    So say you wanted to send me something in email that was encrypted. You would import my key from say my /. page or the keyserver ( assuming we ignore trust for a second) and when you encrypt it you would pick my name from a list of public keys. Then when I'd get it, I'd have to enter my passphrase and then be able to read it.
