Another robo call. This national "no call" thing sure sux. I know so few people in Seattle. Actually, I know no one in Seattle. I sure wish we all could call them and bother the&@%* out of them as they do us.
The DNC list does not automatically block calls. Instead, it provides a list of "do not call" phone numbers to legitimate telemarketers who pay a fee for the list.
The DNC list exempts political callers, survey organizations, charities and companies with preexisting business relationships, but these organizations might have their own, internal Do Not Call list (ask them).
The DNC list is not effective against criminals, spammers and scammers, because those people do not subscribe to the DNC list, and do not care if you are on or off that list.
Its purpose is to stop calls from legitimate telemarketers, and it does a pretty good job at that.

Just got a call from this number with a survey about candidates running for House of Representatives, Dist 1 in GA. Loved that the call originated in Washington State.
