And I do.  As I am sure you do recognize my right to reject
anything I dislike in life, no matter how insensitive this
may be for anyone.

You do not have to respect me nor my feelings or beliefs,
that=B4s seems to be your right.  Good, because I do not have
to respect you nor your feelings or beliefs.

This is a list which deals with the use of a cryptographic
process in many aspects, one of them being the use of digital
signatures on electronic mail.  Therefore it is
understandable that people here will use them on this list.
Which does not mean that is useful for every message posted
here.  But it is an exception list, not a rule for every ml.

Read above.

As for the rest, it seems pointless to keep discussing this
issue any further.  I can=B4t stop you excersizing your rights
and you can=B4t stop me excersizing mine, eventhough they clash
clearly.
