I've found the requests to not be called work pretty much... also getting your name / phone / address added to the Direct Marketing Associations "DO NOT CALL" list helps also.
Last year this time I got 2-3 spam calls / night... now I rarely get them at all.
I still can't get Columbia House to stop sending me spam snail-mail though:(
In my area (Chicago) the telco is offering a new(ish) service where any caller who's phone number is NOT presented by caller id is asked to introduce themselves via a short recording. THEN your phone rings and you hear the recording. You are then given the option (via touch tone keys) to accept the call, reject the call, or reject the call informing the caller you don't want to hear from them again (to be used in the case of a telemarketer).

Adding Swap: 104416k swap-space (priority 2120)
This started when I went to a kernel level higher than 2.0.0. When I was at 2.0.0 and lower, I get a swap priority of -1.
Any idea why this might be happening?
My /etc/fstab swap partition is defined as such...
Thanks!
