[Shop-talk] annoying calls

My default (cell phone) ringtone is silence (a 60-sec recording of
"nothing") so anyone I don't know doesn't interrupt me. And I never
answer a number that I don't know because they all have real rings.
Anyone who is not in my list can leave a message and I call back.
Not perfect, but pretty good.
Donald.
