They're all strong cryptographically, but all shared-secret 
solutions suffer the same fate of having to figure out how to 
securely share your key/OTP if you aren't both the sender and the 
recipient.

I do like OTP for logins over insecure connections if absolutely 
needed, but otherwise, I don't see non-public-key as a great win :)

Good point...I remember hearing something about that a while 
back, but I tend to use public-key for just about everything so 
it didn't register in my active memory.
