Do Not Call

The federal Do Not Call registry is open and accepting phone numbers you want removed from the clutches of spam dialers. It is remarkably easy to register. Nicely designed.

Disagree. Their design is confusing, at least to my family. The phone number field doesn't indicate if you are supposed to put the "-" in between your phone number. 555-1212 or 5551212? If you put it in one way and the marketing company compares it to their database, which has it the other way, do you get called? Such a simple thing - put an example of how one types the phone number in right above the line. Duh.
