Comments:

The proposal to allow pre-recorded messages would be nothing more than a total reversal of the Do Not Call Registry. I have already received one of these messages, and was so quick to hang up in anger that I failed to hear if the message gave me a telephone number to call. If so, I would have reported the company. By the way, they certainly did not identify themselves on my Caller ID, nor were they anyone I had done business with in the past, so what is to prevent others from doing the same thing? Leave it to our idiotic government agencies to enact the Do Not Call list and then find a way to screw up the entire thing. I don't know what planet Allen Hile lives on that he thinks the change wouldn't have dramatic results, but I guarantee we would all be bombarded with calls.
