		End the call by telling the caller you will call back at a later time or tell the caller you will have another more experienced Leader call the person back, if you know of another Leader who is more comfortable taking difficult calls.
		Keep in mind that the vast majority of calls are legitimate and, as the police will tell you, the vast majority of crank calls are harmless, even the obscene ones.
		For instance, just because a crank call is from a male caller, does not mean that all male callers should be suspect.

	Crank Yankers and the quiet heroism of customer-service people. - By Virginia Heffernan - Slate Magazine
		The mid-'70s were indeed bliss for stalkers and crank callers: no answering machines, voicemail, or caller ID. Via the telephone, you could dip, anonymously, into the life of almost anyone whose number you had.
		There's a city setting, Yankerville, and a repertory cast of puppet crank callers called the Yankers, who teletorture a changing cast of puppet marks (who seem, based on the frequent nose-face mismatches, to be made from pieces of earlier marks).
		Silverman, like the best comics on Crank Yankers (Wanda Sykes, Kimmel himself), is tuned in to the fact that American accents may be less consistent than they were rendered in the golden age of mimicry, but their inconsistencies are themselves a source of humor.
