[blparent] Off Topic: National Do-Not-Call List for Cell Phones

[Jess]

Jo Elizabeth and all,
This isn't a true thing that is actually happening. This has been 
circulating around for quite sometime now. If you go to 
http://www.snopes.com and put in National Do-Not -Call list for Cell Phones 
you'll see that its a hoax.
