>>>I wish it was nationwide. They are even smart enough now to wait for the answer machine and leave a message. 100% automated calls talking about everything from satelite tv to grand father clocks. I don't get the pleasure at cursing the machine as much as I would if a real person was taking a few seconds out of their life.

>>i know that there are some devices out there you can buy (i think it's called Tele-Zapper or so) about 150,-. i have heared they work pretty good.

>They should make one that shocks the guy or equipment on the other end with some serious voltage but I don't see that happening soon.
