You must not know many United States Marines. They're a screwy bunch. They kind of like getting shot at: it keeps them on their toes. On the other side of the coin, consider someone suffering from combat-related post traumatic stress disorder, for whom there is literally no environment that allows them to feel safe. One group of people finds even "obvious live threat situations" to be invigorating and they feel quite confident about their ability to thrive in such situations, and another group of people considers all situations, even "obviously" safe ones, to be mortal threats. I think we ought be very careful in making universal statements about what all people agree upon with respect to security. It seems to me to be quite likely there are no such things. As with so many things in life, IDOYTM. Define your threat model, and then we can talk about "coherency" and "security." Not before then. _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
