Someone mentioned the potential problem of people with numbers
Call*Blocked missing important calls from people who are assigned a
number that once belonged to someone else who needed to be blocked.  A
suggestion was made that numbers on the block list expire after a
certain time.  Since the telco obviously knows when a number changes
subscribers, why not clear numbers from everyone's block list as they
are disconnected?
