I'm starting to worry.

His most recent posts have seemed very "Carl like" from what I can tell. Odd that he's not answering his phone.

I am hammered by so much spam calls that i don't answer if I don't recognize the number. Send me a text or leave a voice message. I have been steadily retrieving the missing #s from my old phone and manually adding them to my new phone, but I haven't got up to the 'J,s' yet.

So the folks that you want to connect with will leave you a message, you can capture their number and won't have to put up with the phone ringing unless they are already on your contact list.
Finding this out changed my life!
Good Luck

Carl -- have you heard from Carl? I'm beginning to worry about not being worried ...
