Not as simple as that, Alan :-)
One will need to establish a 'doamin of trust'. That means, for
example, you and I exchange keys, you and I somehow establish to each
other who we are, you and I 'authenticate' each other's identity and
key.
Having done that, you *or* I can do the same with others. That way,
we build the domain of trust.
This is the only way PGP would work properly.
