Angry guy calls me back

So I get a call back from some guy who was completely irate that I would dare send him a letter. He literally threatened me over the phone. I said, "sir, it's just a letter, it's not illegal, if you didn't want to reply you didn't have to". Funny thing is the letter wasn't even addressed to him! It was to his sister! I'm thinking that maybe there is some tension in the family over this home, perhaps it was an inheritance that soured some relationships. I didn't think too much of it, though for the sake of my reputation I held back from just completely telling the guy off.

My point is this - Do you think this guy calls back every company for every piece of solicitation he receives and threatens them? I don't think so. Why would he get so bent out of shape about a simple letter with 14 words asking to buy his house, err, his sister's house?

It's like, man, find a bigger problem!

Geez!
