System name:		m16-034-10
Type and version:	POWER 7.7F
Display type:		POWER_Gt1

What were you trying to do?
	Use the talk command to talk with someone outside of MIT (on Netcom,
a service provider)

What's wrong:
	The talk command does not work correctly.  When someone outside tries
to initiate talk, it either says "refusing messages" or gets caught when it 
checks to see if I initiated it.  Also initating talk with someone outside
doesn't work right either.

What should have happened:
	The talk should have notified me.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
	talk manual.
