I agree.
If we ignored phone calls we'd miss a lot of long distance calls that we 
often get--ones that are NOT easy to return...
For example, my brother-in-law is currently stationed on an oil rigg 
soemwhere around Norway. He has called us from the rigg (yes you
got it, the RIGG) as well as from other far away places.
One of my brothers alos lives overseas. Plus, we get calls from
around the country. We have started screning calls with our answering machine
though, and that helps. BUT, I dont think ignoring the phone is the solution.
Besides, you're just denying yourself a service that you've payed for.
