Cell Phone Registry Alert

Cell phone user alert!
It is recommended that you immediately register your cell phone with the Do Not Call registry by Dec 15th. Starting January 1, 2005 advertisers will get lists of cell phone numbers. Calls from advertisers can eat your minutes to nothing. [You can click the icon, or call toll-free, 1-888-382-1222



While I am recommending this as a consumer precaution, I include a caveat that registration goes on a government list, and those lists are likely to be vulnerable to access by the government as part of "anti-terrorism" legislation.
