Update: You can usually un-block your landline number on a per-call basis by pressing *82 before you dial out.

I hate not knowing who’s calling. If you have a Private Number, I suggest you UN-Private it. It’s become a symbol of untrustworthiness. Sorry to say it.

Maybe I don’t have a right to know who you are. Then again, maybe you don’t have a right to bother me.

You say, “What about back when we didn’t have Caller I.D? Did you just not answer the phone?”
I say, “Yes. A good deal of the time I didn’t answer the phone.”

Besides, now we do have Caller I.D, so that’s the norm and that’s what is expected.

Emails have return addresses, real mail has return addresses, human beings speaking to eachother in person have return addresses and so should phone calls.
