Naw, its easier and more fulfilling to take the abuse doled out on Ihub than to set up an answering machine....heck, its only coming from a couple of dozen people...so that is not too rough...why bother answering phone calls. If you were a potential customer calling, you'd probably get a quick response, right? Oh yeah, thats right I almost forgot, some days nobody answers the phone, and there is no place to leave a message.
Automatic email replies, out of the office? Gee, that is too 21st century for this company. Come on Torvec, get your stuff together, these are the simple things that ARE important.
