so for partial blocks we are all set.......but for out of state calls we are in for it.......hopefully most of our calls are in state.....

Indiana has an excellent do not call law. So far we have won in the courts against the telemarketers. Just saw on FNN where Rep. Dingle from Michigan, is going to try to change the law so that the federal do not call list will still take effect on Oct. 1.

New Yorks is working well. Been on it for a couple of years and rarely ever get a telemarketer here.

Gary,

How do you get on the list in Indiana? My 74 year old father asked me to put him on the national list because he gets 3-4 calls daily. I'd like to get him on the state list in the meantime.

Lanshark, the link to the Indiana "Do Not Call" phone list is: http://www.in.gov/attorneygeneral/telephoneprivacy/

This is better than the federal list. You can do this either over the phone or computer. We receive zero calls. One of the best things the government has done in Indiana. If you have any problems or questions e-mail me at glmerritt@comcast.net.

Great present for your father, good luck.
