Great story, ZK. I have had so-called telemarketers make obscene phone calls to me. I don’t usually answer if I don’t recognize a call, but if I do, I thank them politely and hang up immediately. I am signed up with Do Not Call, so I should not be getting any calls of this type. However, the law does not extend to charitable organizations, and the Patrolmen’s Benevolent Association sometimes calls me ad nauseum for weeks, even after I have already made a pledge for a nominal amount. I finally told one cop who called that I had already (truthfully) sent a donation, but if they continued to call me I would cancel the check. The calls stopped.
