REF: Prerecorded Message EBR Telemarketing, Project No. R411001... I DO NOT want to be bothered in my home, my office, or my cell phone by anyone that I personally did not give my phone number too, and gave permission to call me. Any product or service that I could possibly require can be found via the web, newspaper, or yellow pages... I cannot conceive of anyone that would welcome telephone solicitors... I hate being wakened at 9:00 AM to someone trying to sell me the Brooklyn Bridge, after working till 5:00 AM. The only exception to this rule is that when an extended warrantee (that I personally purchased) expires on a product that I own...a reminder phone call would not be an intrusion, but welcomed Thank you, Robert W. Rider
