If it's from a Florida area code, I answer the phone. If it's from Connecticut and I don't recognize the number, I just reject and block it. Ohio - reject and block. Wisconsin - reject and block. I know folks everywhere else in the country and two in India, one in Japan, several in the UK, one in China, and one in Malaysia. So I pick up just in case it's one of them. They have my number but we never talk on the phone, so I never put them into my call list.

I get frequent calls from the VA, sadly they all show a caller ID of Unknown. I have spoken with them about this, but the people doing the calling have nothing to do with the telephone system and said they will pass it on, but they have "passed it on" for a long time now.
