If someone doesn't want the calling just say "thanks very much, bye!"

That got a little old after the 10th or so call of the evening...

I also got tired of seeing my caller ID having 36 calls to my home while I was at work...I began to wonder if it was telemarkerters or a some burgular "casing" my house to see when I was or was not at home.

Yeah, that would get a little too invading.

If you're getting that many calls I can see why you would want to be on the list. I guess in that case it would make sense since you would find no other time to do anything else but answer the phone all night.
