RE: Phone calling party number detection.
 
I've talked to soooo many people that beleive this is easily done with
a "BOX" that it makes me wonder if I should start selling
the middle part of bridges in South East Asia.
The ***ONLY*** way this works is when your LOCAL phone company OFFERS it.
It's an add-on feature to your phone service. The equip used to gather
that info isn't cheap. But if you ask me, I'd pay for it.
I'd *** LOVE *** to pant and drool back after receiving the odious slimeball
calls.
EVen break the law and set my custom terminal package to re-dial the
weenie's phone number 10 jillion times while I'm happily at work.
But nooooooooo.....U.S. West is "Evaluating" this option being tested in some
of the Mid-West states and isn't about to offer the option at least until
the Early 90's.
Perhaps I should DEMON-DIAL U.S. West's El presidente a few jillion times
to get his attention.
 
Nahh. He'd just sick the phone cops on me.
