Caller ID;
Ten bucks will buy 60 moments of phone time....this internet-based business allows you to send whatever number and ID you wish to the called party.
The news did quite a program on it...even setting up a police officer to take a call from "the FBI"...also allows one to change a mans voice to a womens...and vice versa.

Ain't technological advances wunnerful...???

    Is caller ID itself legal?

    The law dogs are scurrying thru their books..here in Okla....the answer appears to be....NO. Perhaps..."If there is a crime committed"...and the odds of them devoting money and man-power to such is small...
