This is another example of lies being spread by John Gilmore and his cronies.
I don't want the U.S. Government to maintain my or anyone else's key escrow.

                        JOHN GILMORE IS A LIAR.

I was basing my reply on the content of your earlier post.  It is
certainly possible that I misunderstood your views.  Please clarify your
position on key escrow to prevent further misunderstanding.

I'm sorry, I don't think I'm able to explain my views on any complex technical
topic in terms so simple that they could be understood by the "cypher punks".

     Sounds like a personal failing to me.
