mmm, the dissenter browser doesn't like that page, shows it blanked.
Firefox with its kitchen sink collander full of security holes does. And 
it says my id_rsa.pub key is likely 5 years to old to work. What it 
says:

RSA keys (ssh-rsa) with a valid_after before November 2, 2021 may 
continue to use any signature algorithm. RSA keys generated after that 
date must use a SHA-2 signature algorithm. Some older clients may need 
to be upgraded in order to use SHA-2 signatures.

So it looks like I'll have to update if I can to sha-2, and then generate 
new keys. Bummer...

Thank you Peter.
