And for me, today, Dave Barry is that hero. After his original commentary on the Do Not Call list generated some negative feedback in the telemarketing world, he really let them have it. Of course, the ATA spokesperson played right into his hands; you just can't make up quotes that good. But basically, he's my hero for writing the sort of article that we would all write if we were a) that clever, and b) had a nationally syndicated column. Way to stick it to them! It almost makes me want to sent money when the "Barry for President in '04" campaign rolls around.
