Subject: Texans Entitled to <=$1500 Damages For Computerized Calls! 
Organization: TELECOM Digest

Under a new law that just passed in Texas, consumers are allowed to
collect up to $1500 in fines agains any company who initaites a phone
call with a non-human and can be identified (and who does not have
prior permission to contact you).  Pollsters and non-profit groups are
exempt.  Now if we just had CallerID we could all get rich!!
