+Goofey is a program which provides many services by communicating
+with a central server Pluto. Services provided by goofey include
+remote user location, message sending, fortune provision, jargon
+file lookup and a timetable service.
+
+Goofey is the preferred mode of communciation of many people, as
+it combines the immediacy of talk(1) and the asyncronous nature of
+mail(1). That is, you will know if messages sent with goofey have
+been received by the recipient almost immediately. Goofey also
+provides facilies for users to supply finger type information, an
+'away' message for when you are away, a 'quiet' message for when
+you are busy or away from the terminal, in fact just about everything
+that people have been put up a good case for being included in the
+server.
