I'd begun to suspect that there's a berserk auto-dialer out there
somewhere because I get these blank calls on my PERSONAL TELEPHONE!
At least once a week (thank goodness its not more) I answer the phone
and there's no one there, not even the air noise you hear when
you have a live connection.  We may all have to get the kind of phones
that screen out calls from specific numbers - I don't know what else
to do about it.
