Have you seen the UCI "ttyd" package? It lets each user specify one of the following actions when a write to the terminal (via write/talk/wall or a provided special subroutine) is requested. + Write to tty + Refuse, with optional reason + Send message by mail instead + Pipe message to a program + Connect writer to a specified internet port Actions can be stacked and popped so that programs can change the action and restore it later.

I think it's all just a BIG HOAX on the part of the plastic sign salesmen-- ..to sell more numbers!!
