Post it to the net. Then, everyone on the net should call this number and complain. (If each person calls once, it isn't harassing -- after all, the machine called us!) If a lot of numbers start getting posted, just call the ones near your home. I volunteer to do this next time I get a junk call. Anyone else? (Don't say yes or no -- just post a number sometime!) --Bruce Burger Lincroft, NJ
