Like Ellie, I didn't know anyone could do that.

I think we have solved our unwanted phone call problem. We recently bought a cordless Panasonic that has a call block feature. We can put 30 numbers into the phone that we want to block; along with all those that say out-of-area, private call, unknown. When one of these calls comes in, the phone rings once, and then it is cut off.

It works - there was an unavailable last week. It rang once and stopped. We have put in 4 numbers on our own.

This should be a God-send come the next election time
