All hail the Do Not Call List
Cats: slack woman, words|The people have been freed.
We can now walk in our own homes undisturbed by telemarketers from far away lands trying to sell us financial products we do not want.
We can now work in silence, uninterrupted by the constant ring of a phone with automated speech systems on the other end.
We can look forward to real people on the other end of that telephone ring.
The Do Not Call era has arrived in Canada.
Praise be to the Do Not Call List.

All hail, indeed.

I slept infront of the web portal all night. I might miss the opportunity to sharpen my wit and sarcasm, and to exercise my tomfoolery.

At last something positive!
Can anyone tell what was the genesis, author or aurhors of this project?
Thanks

I put my number on the list yesterday, and had 3 calls last night…guess they didn’t get my message!
Praise be Call Display!

How do I get my parents on this list?

Megan, all hail.
Dick, huh?
Carlos, the people demanded it.
Sara, sister of Nanc, welcome to GT! It will take 31 days for the do-not-call info to be registered
Dale, I can think a many others I would like on this list, but one step at a time

I registered. And somehow Dale registered me so now I can’t call him.

And we must never ever do business with anyone, because once they have an existing business relationship with you, you can’t list them. That must be how Dale’s mom gets away with it.

I didn’t really sleep infront of the web portal, but might have (like the boxing day shoppers) if that’s what it took.
I had fun with telemarketers though…pretending to be Mrs. Hall, interrupting them frequently with unrelated questions, etc… Now I’ll have to find another outlet.

Espanya, our Dale is cunning.
Barbara, loop holes are the zit on the bottom of the DNCL,
Dick, Mrs. Hall in the Monty Python voice.
Why not make your new outlet politicians?
