PGP keys

It would be silly for me to post my PGP public key here. A man-in-the-middle attack could modify the text on its way to your browser, for example. If you want to get my key, here's the more secure procedure:

  1. Have your key management program retrieve any non-revoked keys for cortex@brainonfire.net.
  2. Look at the list of identities in the key you get, make sure they make sense.
  3. Use your key manager to generate the fingerprint for the key.
  4. Go to the College of Wooster website and find their phone number. Use the directory lookup feature on the phone. At the proper prompt, start typing MCCORMACKTIMOTHY.
  5. Talk to me. Verify that you are talking to me by asking me questions, verify that I know how to manage keys properly, and verify the fingerprint.
  6. Assign the key whatever level of trust and validity you deem appropriate.

Or, if you're feeling lucky, I suppose you could just download it here.
