Message-ID: <3393@accuvax.nwu.edu> Date: 31 Jan 90 11:42:00 GMT Sender: news@accuvax.nwu.edu Organization: TELECOM Digest Lines: 12 Approved: Telecom@eecs.nwu.edu X-Submissions-To: telecom@eecs.nwu.edu X-Administrivia-To: telecom-request@eecs.nwu.edu X-Telecom-Digest: Volume 10, Issue 67, message 2 of 11 You can pay all you want ( or don't want ) for unlisting your number and yet there is no defence against your friendly area carpet cleaning agency who dials a few randomly selected numbers in your local calling zone. Much like recieving Junk Mail addressed to "Current Resident". And one would think adding your name to the phone book would make the phone company move everything one down too. No ? :-) Pushpendra Mohta
