It really irritates me that

they are giving out our cell numbers then charging us for the calls to pester us. That's wrong!

It used to be against the law for telemarketers to call cell phones. I anticipated that the

lobbiests would get the law changed, so when the National Do Not Call list originally came out, I registered my cell

as well as my land line. I just renewed the registration as it was expiring.

It's still illegal.
