Thanks to Len Sassaman at PGP for the heads-up.

cheers,

Randy:

I have been using:
         http://wwwkeys.us.pgp.net

It does not seem to be as heavily loaded as
many of the other servers.  (This posting is
now likely to destroy that advantage  :-)
Having said that, it still takes 10 seconds or
more to get a response.

It would be good to have a set of servers that
had enough horsepower to return answers more promptly.
