Comments:

Please do not weaken the do-not-call registry by allowing telemarketers to use pre-recorded messages when intruding on people with unwanted calls. If they must be allowed to harass individuals with these unwanted calls, then at least with a live person you can express your displeasure and attempt to have them add you to their do not call list if they don't hang up on you first. Also, if required to have a person make these calls, it will cost them more money to do so than using a recorded message and will limiit the number of calls that they can make. Thank you.
