When I was in Florida in June there was a lot of
discussion about a proposed law that would allow
individuals to get a special mark next to their
name in the phone book indicating that they did
not want phone solicitations.  Any company that
called anyway would be liable for prosectution.
The proposal was getting a lot of popular support
but I don't know of its chances of passing or
whether any other state was looking into this.
I realize this doesn't help you solve your problem
but, I thought it was interesting.
