OT - Federal "No Call List" ???

[alan forsyth]

Does that include calls from Bombay and Delhi? Here, international calls bypass the list. You might also find that the computers at the other end dial anyway and only disconnect after four rings when it finds your number on the list. So you still get interrupted only to discover they've already hung up on the other end. GRRRRRRRRRRRing GRRRRRRing!!!!

  The Fed "No Call List" takes about a month, after you list your number, to be in effect.  There are certain companies/institutions, etc. that are still allowed to make telephone solicitations.  I don't know what types those are.  Being listed has cut out approx. 90% of my unwanted calls.  The rest I screen with Caller ID.

    I'd like to know if any of you have had any good experiences with the Federal "No Call List"??? I thought it was a good idea, but it isn't working, IMO! I continue to get Solicitation calls that disrupt my work in the shop. grrr! I have however, come up with a solution: I purchased a "Safe & Sound", hand held, Boat Horn. When I get one of those calls and I determine that it is, in fact, some moron trying to dip into my pocket....I let em' have a two second blast!<G> Haven't had any of them idjits call again! hehe
    I hope Andy or??? let's this through.<G>
