Let's put it this way.  If you were vegan and heard about a Vegan
Unconference then you would get very excited.  The unconference would
allow people do recipes in front of an audience.  Great, so you go to
the unconference.  You look at the board and see a cake "talk", great.
You attend this and then the "presenter" then starts adding butter to
the cake mixture saying it is "better" this way.  But you are vegan and
this meant to be a Vegan Unconference :(  Next you see on the board a
"talk" on curry.  Sounds great so you attend.  The "presenter" of this
"talk" gets out a meat cleaver and starts chopping up chicken to put in
the curry.  You object: "This is meant to be a Vegan Unconference!" and
the present says: "Well, there are vegetables in the curry."; that's
what it is like.

You need to refresh my key, I updated the expiry date a while ago and
pushed it up.

Note, make sure  you use the longer format to look up:

0xD7726C3EAAF8E3EF

If you look up using the short format then you'll find the key that was
generated to clash with the short format.  The "clasher" even went so
far as to sign the key with other clashing keys.  This was done to many
many keys.  They've been so kind as to revoke them now.

Short:

Long:
