I think I've picked up exactly one recorded call, which I promptly hung up on. Not nearly as satisfying as hanging up on a Live Person, but you take what you can get.
Usually, I just let the machine answer the kitchen phone (since the people most likely to call the kitchen phone don't want us, anyway -- our number's one digit off from KMart), and if it's somebody I actually want to talk to, I'll pick up.
