Edit: Wonder if those annoying unsolicited faxes that eat up all of your ink will be included?

I signed up. NJ is working.

I have a feature from my phone company that blocks them...I haven't had a single telemarketer call for over a year

[Epidemic]

Oh yes the telemarketer block is ok but if it is the one I am thinking of it may keep out of market cellular calls and the likes from being able to call you because it simply blocks blocked numbers.

What is it? I'm not signing up for some telemarketer scam, am I? Actually, I'll try my friend's number and see if that works.

Those are illegal anyway, in case you didn't know. If you feel like it, you can send responses to all those junk faxes threatening to sue, getting the FCC involved. IF that doersn't shut them up, then DO sue them.

I'm signed up already. (They may be Slashdotted by now.)

It's good for five years; then you'll have to renew.

I like telemarketers. I get so bored some times its just nice to have a good conversation with someone. I mean they are a little one track minded. Always trying to sell you something but if you work hard enough you can find out about there family and pets and stuff sometimes.
