Flashes of Panic

When you are cold-called by the computer-supply catalog company, take notes. (Better still, get an email with an outline of the high points.) Put the relevant details in the wiki.

Then, when someone else from the same company calls, about three weeks later, you can honestly say, “Oh, yes, we’ve already heard from you. We were contacted on $date by $caller_name, and get_pronoun($caller_name) sent us $file_list and get_possessive($caller_name) contact information.”

Works like a charm.
