This is why I bought a Pro Caller Block device; it looks quite similar to the old caller id boxes that first were on the market when Caller Id became available. The name and number are displayed on this box and I can choose to block them from further calls or answer the phone. Now peace and quiet reign at my house. If the phone rings once I can check the display and see it is a number I have previously blocked but the dumb-asses keep trying.
