My understanding is that it is possible to have an outgoing trunk 
group set up to ANI/Caller-ID to a single number -- that is, for 
Caller-ID purposes, they'd all  display the same number, which could 
be the main INCOMING number of the company.  Certainly makes a lot 
more sense than having it ID as a number that you can't even call 
back!
