[net.consumers] computerized and other junk callers

**
Since I have recently become an owner of real estate, I have been overwhelmed
with both junk mail and junk calls, including two calls from computers in one
week!  The mail is easy, but when the callers call whilst I'm in the bathroom
or in the middle of a gormet creation, or watching the remaining exciting
moments of the show to see whodunit, I don't want to dash out to the phone to
find some bozo trying to sell me something.  I have heard of an organization
that removes you from mailing lists.  I have also heard of one that will
remove you from calling lists.  Darned if I know who they are, and I'm
sure other people as well of myself would be interested if anyone knows.
If you do, please post it, I would much appreciate it.

Thanks in advance,
