Yes, to an extent, but a nasty person could always sign with their
own key, and unless you knew to look out for a signature from me
people wouldn't see a problem. I think. Though admittedly this is
probably rather unrealistic.

The root of the server is a blog of 'product reviews', all of which
are dated January 1st, and look to me like they're there just for
amazon referal purposes.
Saying that, I suppose that shouldn't really bother me - just lowers
my trust somewhat.
Thanks for the info.
