More on Telemarketers

More evidence yet that in the past couple of months the national Do Not Call list is no longer working very well: last night I got my third telemarketing call in less than 24 hours. Yes, despite the fact that I'm on the Do Not Call list.

I'm sorry, but it is my policy not to participate in polls or surveys.

Then I hang up. In my experience, it works. As well as any anti-unsolicited-phone-call tactic has been working lately. Even, I repeat, for those of us who are on the Do Not Call list.
