[comp.dcom.telecom] Phone-in-use indicator

A while ago someone posted a question for some kind of indicator
to tell that another extention is in use. Someone suggested a
battery and light on the other 2 wires of a phone line.

Does anyone have a circuit which senses the voltage drop when someone
picks up the phone? It would seem to me to be easier to do.
