Cell Phone Alert

Starting Jan 1, 2005, all cell phone numbers will be made public to telemarketing firms. This means that as of Jan 1, your cell phone may start ringing with calls from telemarketers. But unlike your home phone, most of you pay for your incoming calls. These type of telemarketer calls will eat up your free minutes and end up costing you money in the long run. According to the National Do Not Call List, you have until Dec. 15th 2004 to get on the national "Do not call list" for cell phones. You need to call 1-888-382-1222 from the cell phone that you wish to have put on the "do not call list" to be put on the list. You can also register online at http://www.donotcall.gov.
