Comments:
If I put my number on a do-not-call registry, it is clear that I am asking not to be called for telemarketing. This amendment provides an excuse/loophole for a telemarketer to keep contacting me, regardless of my desires not to be called. Perhaps worse yet, the amendment offers *pre-recorded* messages to be let through. Not only am I forced to listen to the entire solicitation to get to the end, to get a phone number to remove me, I need to spend more time in a call waiting to be answered, to ask to be removed. This is an unwise use of the do-not-call registry, and does not serve the general public who clamored for the registry to be passed. James Sivertsen Seattle, WA
