    Why does talk want mesg y all the time?  It's not needed to be able to talk
to others.  I like to keep messages on on one xterm, and messages off on
everything else, including a talk session - that way it doesn't interrupt the
wrong window.  I know I could just go change this myself (the change is really
trivial), but I thought I might ask if anyone knows another reason it's
desirable (?) to keep this behavior...
