The calls just keep coming, no-call list or not. As an example, for the past week and a half, the "Diabetes Foundation" has been calling our home twice daily, every day. Neither one of us has ever given any donation of any kind to them. But they're a charity, and so the law doesn't apply to them - just as it doesn't apply to politicians. They apparently have been given a free license to annoy anyone they like for as long as they like and there is really nothing that can be done. :/ -- Karen C.
