I wonder if writing to our congressmen would help move
them to pass a bill to declare junk calls illegal?
I consider it an invasion of privacy,

In response to those who said they keep the person hanging to waste their 
time, at first I thought that was cruel, but the more I think of it, the
caller certainly KNOWS what they are doing--they are disturbing you in your
home (or whereever). So, why NOT waste their time! I think in the future
I will  1. ask for the name of their company  2. tell them to please hold 
on.   3. contact their company and tell them how I feel.
