Useful outside New York

Something useful I found to pass along to others ...

My aunt sent me an email to let me know that starting today, Feb 1, cell phone number lists are being made available to telemarketing companies. However, you can place your cell number on the Federal Do Not Call list by calling the number below, or going to the listed website. (I used the phone number, only took a minute or two) The number, once registered, will remain on the list for five years.
I always hated getting those calls when I had a land line, and the last thing I'd want is to get them on my cell.
