On Saturday, Jan. 17th, 4-5:15pm, Captain James will show convention participants how to use GPG to secure your email at Arisia, New England’s largest science fiction and fantasy convention. It will be in the Independence room at the Westin Waterfront Hotel in Boston. The only cost is admission to the convention.
