Nmfs Calling On The Phone?

[cracker]

My brother was at my Mom's house earlier today (bear in mind she has in home care) and my brother answers the phone and someone representing the NMFS wants to do a survey about his last two fishing trips. He gave some BS answers as he was unsure of what this was all about but told the survey taker to be sure and add the comments he was definitely against any Red Snapper Closings that are bing proposed. The thing that got me is that my dad died 6 years ago and no one else lives there nor has used her phone number to register a fishing license. That seemed very strange they are just cold calling ANYONE (fishermen or not) for a survey. Have any of you heard of this??? very strange... I wonder if this is how they are gathering their BS data now?

It is just my Mom at her house and my dad has been dead 5 years... No one has gotten any licenses at that residence or used that phone number in 10+ years, just strange.

That is strange. I'm not ragging on you about your father's passing......it must have been a rough week on you.
