I think one could make a very good case for a class action suit if they start spamming cell phones. People PAY FOR those minutes they are using up. I also think that the response to being interrupted no matter where one is or what one is doing with a commercial message will be so incendiary that it will give even these idiots pause. Also -- is help on the way? Peak Oil -- economic collapse, etc. Business Not As Usual During Alterations. First, a frantic gasping effort to draw in more business, which will fail because everybody will be short of cash, then more and more big business bankruptcies, already starting with GM and the older airlines, then less and less national marketing? If the big international companies are out of business, they surely won't be soliciting anymore, from Bangalore or anywhere else. Well, it doesn't hurt to look for a silver lining. Traffic congestion should also improve, eventually. Susan
