On keyserver.kjsl.com, your @achilles.net userid is revoked (on 0x191FCD8A). (Re-)adding it to your secret key would generate a new selfsig that would supersede the revocation, so be careful if you do that to re-revoke it. Otherwise, recreate the userids exactly as they were before and all the old sigs will transfer to them. You already have a lot of selfsigs on your userids (which will also come back when you refresh your key from a keyserver), and recreating and re-signing the userids will add another selfsig to each, but (unless you can do surgery on secring.gpg) that can't be helped now. -- Jason Harris | NIC: JH329, PGP: This _is_ PGP-signed, isn't it?
