<a href=http://www.msnbc.com/news/965816.asp target=new>Thousands of people flood a telemarketing service with annoying phone calls.</a>

They were inspired by an Aug. 31<sup>st</sup> article by humor columnist Dave Barry, who printed the number of American Teleservices Association, and encouraged his readers to call up and "tell them what you think".

Needless to say, that's exactly what they did. :lol:

Quote:Barry hardly sounded apologetic.

â€œI feel just terrible, especially if they were eating or anything,â€ he said. â€œThey have phones like the rest of us have phones. Their attitude seems to be if you have a phone, people are allowed to call you.â€

Callers to ATA now hear a recording that says because of â€œoverwhelming positive response to recent media events, we are unable to take your call at this time.â€

:rofl::rofl::rofl:
