I agree with lakritz.....delete or skip on the machine........

Best thing to do if they call and get you....say, "Please hold"....and set the phone down till you pass it again and hear that beep beep beep beep beep beep.....this detains them from making another call while waiting for you to get back on the line...and ties up the telemarketing lines.....ergo giving them less time to make more calls! You'll be helping your fellowman! Or....you could sign up for the "NO CALL" list. You could find the info online for that, I'm sure. Sears can still call you (as an example...if you are a customer) but those ones who want you to have a "free trial" offer of something are banned to call! It's a law now.....ty Bush!
