With regards to Nelson Bolyard's (nelson@bolyard.wpd.sgi.com) two-line
CID solution, I just recalled something from a couple of weeks ago.
Upon calling a COCOT, I got a telco tri-tone message stating something
to the effect of: "There are no incoming calls permitted to this
telephone ..." Da-Daa-Daa...
 
(I think this is the same type of message that Bell Atlantic provides
when you have been chosen as a CALL BLOCK(tm?)ed number ... eg, you
bother someone, then they block all future calls from your number.)
 
Anyway, I think therefore you might be able to explain the situation, 
and request this special service from your telco.
