key expiration

That couldnt be the problem because the photo is only in the PGP8
keyring.  I could never get it onto a server, and infact I just lost it
since I dumped the PGP8 keyring.  all my exports to the server have been
from gpg, and I never had a picture in gpg.

so if its a key server problem, its not from the picture.

note that I updated pgp.mit.edu to 10 years, but keyserver.kjsl.com
either wont take it, or just takes longer to update its db once it
receives a new key.  Either way, neither will accept a date of 'never.'
