If I want to respond to this in an email, I type "F".  If I want to
respond in usenet, I type "R".  I know typing "R" is much more
difficult than typing "F", but after a few years it becomes a little
easier.

>I need that more than I need ROTFL-13, that's for sure.

I have all 3, each with typing one key.

>And why don't you use a proper encryption system, come to that?

>My OE is PGP enabled.

I don't send "encrypted" posts to usenet but, if I wanted to sign my
posts, I can PGP-sign them.  I just don;t see any reason to use the
bandwidth.

But, if you're talking about raven1's email munging, PGP-signing his
posts wouldn't prevent email scavenging.  ROT-13ing them will.
