[comp.dcom.telecom] Call Waiting.

All this talk about call waiting makes me ask my question.  Call waiting
is fine on outgoing calls, I like it.  However, it's worse than useless
on incoming calls because a non-answer makes the caller think I'm not
even home.  Some solutions I'd accept (I don't know how practical they
are): on the third non-answered ring, caller gets a busy signal;
punching *70 during a call cancels call waiting; punching *70 on a call
waiting interrupt cancels it.
