I usually tell them something like... I'd love to hear your pitch, but my daughter just put the cat in the washing maching during the spin cycle so I gotta run. Perhaps you'd let me call you at home after you get off work and we can discuss it further. Can you give me your home number?
Either they hang up on you or they respond (rather curtly) with something like "why would I want you to call me at home" and then I usually respond..."Well, you called ME at home... what's the difference?"
