What should have happened:
	Well first of all removing a few tabs between username and
	real name would make things look a lot nicer.  Then we would
	want to deal with the functional bug.  Namely I did not open
	all of my windows at 7PM on Wednesday.  I've been told this is
	0 UNIX time, so it probably is off by more than just the few
	days between when I logged in and Wednesday. :-) It also
	appears that finger doesn't distinguish between ttyp0 and
	pts/0.  The output of /usr/athena/bin/f is below, because DTRT
	in these cases, so you can see the actual data.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
	man finger
