??? ... its simple. If they choose to withhold their number I choose to
reject their call. they can always dial <code> to release their number if
they choose. Many large organisations have an alternate presentation
number so you get the number of the switchboard ratehr than the office
extension number. I simply don't want people phoning me up who refuse to
own up to who they are before they invade my privacy.
