   I've been thinking about this for a couple of hours, and I think
I have come up with the ultimate phone harassment discouragement.
Here's the deal.  When the guy calls up, you detonate a large
tactical nuke right next to the phone.  The caller will be
instantly vaporized.

   Pretty clever, huh?

   I'd patent the idea, but it's probably illegal to own nukes.

P.S.  It might be easier to buy a handgun and discharge it into
the microphone.  The caller will get the bullet right in the ear.
