No, that's just the point.  I have the revocation certificates, I can 
get the public keys from keyservers but (obviously) not the secret keys 
and I didn't have a chance to save them.  Using an old saved keyring I 
have some old public and secret keys, but not the recently generated 
ones.

If I can revoke the keys then I can generate new keypairs (and save them 
this time!)
