-                                               <p>Emphasize the distinction between trusting a person subjectively, and seeing whose keys they've signed objectively. Without a proper understanding of trust, the beautiful transative trust properties of the web of trust are lost. Since trust is an internal and subjective thing, it's unnecessary for participants to share how much they trust another participant with anyone else.</p>
-
-<p>Have the participants download each other's keys, read out their own fingerprints, and present their IDs to each other. Help participants navigate the interface to sign each other's keys, and encourage participants to assign each other trust levels if they already know each other.</p>
+                                               <h2><em>#4</em> Explain the pitfalls</h2>
+                                               <p>Remind participants that encryption works only when it's explicitly used; they won't be able to send an encrypted email to someone who hasn't already set up encryption. Also remind participants to double-check the encryption icon before hitting send, and that subjects and timestamps are never encrypted. See Email Self-Defense's Security Tips subsection for more information.</p>
