Blynn In 2001, I got my first cell phone. It came with a number that included a "336" Winston-Salem, North Carolina area code. I still have that number, and over the years I've periodically received calls meant for someone named Dawson who must have a number similar to mine. No big deal. We all occasionally write a number down incorrectly or fat-finger the dialing. But last week, I received a voice message meant for Dawson that made me chuckle. It was from a Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) plaintiff attorney who said he was responding to information Dawson had submitted online about "robocalls" that Dawson had apparently been getting about a large restaurant chain. https://tinyurl.com/bdxn98u7 -- (Please remove QRM from my email address to write to me directly)
