My land line is ringing every few minutes...

[PoindexterOglethorpe]

8. I have both cell and landline, and mainly because I can hear better on the landline

I don't anticipate getting rid of it.

I get a reasonable share of robo calls, but I simply hang up as soon as I figure that out. Most of the time, even though I'm supposed to have caller ID, the system doesn't capture the phone number of the caller. I have a friend I talk to every single day, and his name and number show up maybe a third of the time. So if I never answered the phone if I couldn't see a known number, I'd miss a lot of his calls.

Although if for any reason I don't feel like answering a particular call, I know that if it's important enough a message will be left.
