I thought "git remote rm csorensen" would succeed...

You need to configure your ssh to use the correct private key.  Something 
like

        Host repo.or.cz
                User carl_sorensen
                IdentityFile /home/sorensen/.ssh/id_rsa.repo

into your $HOME/.ssh/config.  Of course, you have to put in the correct 
path to your private key.

Hth,
