Dr. Nall,

Your find command should read:  find / -name termcap\* -print
instead of:                     find / -name termcap*  -print

The problem is that if you omit the quoting '\' before the '*', your
command shell will expand the 'termcap*' into a list of matching filenames.
Aparently your current directory was /usr/junk and that directory contained
the file that find found.
