THIS IS NOT THE WAY TO SIGN A KEY.  Sorry for shouting, but I really think 
it's important :-).  You should only sign a key if you met in person, and  
verified your respective IDs (such as driver's licenses).  The last part is 
not necessary if you know the person closely.   When you are 
signing a key, you are vouching for that person's identity.  Please don't take 
this lightly.   

Thanks.
