I think he means that there were more than 100,000 usenet forgeries of
his name.  I've been posting to usenet since early 1990, and I doubt
that I've posted anywhere near that number of messages, and the number
of forgeries of my posts have been less than a dozen.

Even if he has been forged that number of times, his PGP signing
doesn't solve anything because hardly anyone else is using PGP, so his
PGP signature is meaningless.
