Thanks, I started with that site.  Specifically, the situation is this:

The box is in Atlanta.  The SE is claiming the serial console isn't giving 
him an option to go to single user mode.  From my understanding he should 
see a menu whether he is on a serial console, or attached with monitor and 
IBM keyboard.  I have barely touched AIX, so I'm asking in the hope that 
someone with many years of AIX experience can pipe up and say "Yes he 
should be able to see this menu and press 5 to get to single user 
boot from the serial console".
