As a followup to Ken Dykes' story about the charge for unlisted
numbers, I ran into an interesting situation when we got the new 5ESS
service at my home, and I decided to "link" my two phone lines with
residential Centrex.  I told them that I wanted the second number
unlisted, as I wanted all incoming calls to originate on "line 1".
Originally they were going to charge me for the unlisted number.  At
my prodding, either they changed their mind, or they found a feature
in Centrex tarrifs that did not charge for having unlisted numbers on
all but the main Centrex number.
