    TK> "enter your private PGP key"... :)   
      
      
   I was just moving my own keys from one of a pc to my Blackberry     
   when something interesting occurred to me.  First of all, my     
   opengpg prompted for my existing passphrase *before* it would     
   E)xport the key.  Secondly, even if someone had the key in their     
   possession, they would need to know the passphrase to use it.   
      
   So, it seems that *just* having the private key block (without     
   also knowing the passphrase) is not very useful to anyone.
