With "kill" based on CID I just thought of another feature:

At the 12th ring my phone rolls to voice mail. Set system for
allowing 11 rings for 800 numbers then "answer" (off hook for a few
seconds), prevents 800 crap in the voice mail ;-)

...Jim Thompson

Better yet, answer on the first ring: "This mailbox is full", then
hang-up ;-)


Even faster and lower power... Do what I do and unplug the (only)
phone and stick it in the drawer (the line is for DSL).




Any such answer attempt will not work; as marketeers that call (me)
hang up on or before the first syllable.


Who cares? The phone is disconnected, sitting in the drawer. Let
'em call all day. Please!

Disconnected phone = = impossible for any friend or relative to call you.

Wrong. Cell phone.

Wake up.

It must be hard, but *think*.
