** What were you looking for?
  Where to find the fingerprint of the MIT Certificate
Authority site certificate, hopefully PGP signed by
jis.

** Where did you expect to find it?
http://web.mit.edu/is/help/cert/cert.html#site
which discusses how to get the cert.
  

** Is there a page that you're referring to?  
** Please provide the url:

http://web.mit.edu/is/help/cert/cert.html#site

** Comments:

  This info wasn't here. I think jis has it on a web
page somewhere, but I'm not certain where. It certainly
should be there.

While it is a pleasant fiction that no one bothers to check
the authenticity of the MIT CA when they get the cert,
it would be nice if it were at least possible to do so
without being "in-the-know".
