OFF topic, but very important
 

You have 16 days to register your cell phone on the national no-call list. Yes, your cell number will be sold to marketing companies and yes it will cost you minutes on your bill when they call. To avoid this go to

www.donotcall.gov

Only takes minutes to register your number and you can register up to 3 at a time.

This has been a public service announcement:cool:

And Kasept can move this over to the off topic forum whenever.

That message has been going around for three years.

Very true, I panicked myself when I heard it, but on the fed gov's site, it states you can add your cell, but it's not necessary..I can try and find the link if anyone wants it.

Oh, Well us here down in Kentuckahh don't get them there updates like you big city folk.....:o

I knew about the home phone, but damn, your cell phone?

Nah, I had to look it up myself.

Here's what I found at www.ftc.gov under the FAQ's?

What Phone Numbers Can I Register?

10. Can I register my cell phone on the National Do Not Call Registry?

Yes, you may place your personal cell phone number on the National Do Not Call Registry. The registry has accepted cell phone numbers since it opened for registrations in June 2003. There is no deadline to register a home or cell phone number on the Registry.

You may have received an email telling you that your cell phone is about to be assaulted by telemarketing calls as a result of a new cell phone number database; however, that is not the case. FCC regulations prohibit telemarketers from using automated dialers to call cell phone numbers. Automated dialers are standard in the industry, so most telemarketers don’t call consumers on their cell phones without their consent.

Do like I do whorst, if I don't know the number, I let it go to voice mail. :)
