A better twist on all the clear suggestions that are shell specific:
$ clear >new.issue
$ edit new.issue # whatever editor you want
$ mv new.issue /etc/issue
Note that I put a lot of returns before the clear so that I can
<shift>-<pg up> to see what happened before I got logged out. I simple
change of vt's prevents someone else from doing this. This also prevents
a cleared screen after a closed telnet, something I don't like.
