Think of it as about Focusing marketing messages for enhanced Performance. If you are on an archive page, current postings are found here.
"The Federal Trade Commission today released its schedule for creating and implementing the national "do not call" registry, first announced in December 2002 as part of the Amended Telemarketing Sales Rule (TSR). The registry will give consumers a choice about whether to receive most telemarketing calls.

As of October, it will be illegal for most telemarketers to call a number listed on the registry."
