   EV>The only option I 'HAD' used with my plain vanilla telephone service   
   EV>was Caller ID, and when I learned it didn't tell me who EVERYONE was   
   EV>that called my number I decided I could use the Ten Dollars USD better   
   EV>for something else.   
      
   EV>It's almost Plain Vanilla telephone service here except for DSL being   
   EV>added.   
      
     The thing is, I'd be getting calls at all hours of the day and   
   night...and I get those on the cellphone. Even if you put yourself in   
   the "Do Not Call" deal, you have to keep doing it every so often...it   
   unfortunately, is not a lifetime thing.   
      
     And, if you make a donation to one organization, political or   
   otherwise, they must have a global circulation list that goes   
   out...because "everybody and their brother" is going to call, mail, or   
   email you for money. It's just like giving "people food" to a begging   
   dog...if you give into them once, you've corrupted them forever.
