I hear several concerns:

1. How come I have to take this ?

2. How can I stop it ?


It seems like most of the responses are in category 1.  I strenuously
object to the practice of telephone solicitation but being rude to the
caller will not prevent the next sales caller.

I want to know, HOW CAN I PREVENT THEM FROM CALLING IN THE FIRST PLACE ??

(So far, not a damn thing !)
