Somewhere there was a Miami Herald description of the Phil Hendrie show
that reads practically verbatim to Wyatt's above quote about Art Bell.

Who needs a screener when you have Caller ID. You just set up a PC with
a telephony card to ID calls, compare the numbers with your list and to
not answer numbers on the black list. By the way, I don't know who might
use this method. But, by the number of wackos, I do not suspect MrKABC.
However, it would be easily and cheaply accomplished. And since most
call in shows have 800/888 numbers, callers can not block their numbers.
It wouldn't surprise me at all if Art had a similar setup. If so, then Charlie "liberal"
must be on his "A" list.

If I remember correctly, you CAN block your number from 800 etc. numbers
(except for "enhanced 911"), BUT it shows up on the phone bill at the
end of the month no matter what.

Well, that says everything about you and your opinions. That and your
reference to Furerer. InternRob must refer to your confinement
status...interned at some mental institution.... Im sure you use the
computer to communicate because they wont allow you to have sharp
objects, like pencils or pens, in there. Nut!
