With enough occurrences, The New Ma Bell(tm) - and probably the others - 
can pull records; just like IP originating numbers, the actual 
origination number can't be spoofed - the switchgear HAS to "know" what 
circuit connects where at all times.  So hitting "send" and "disconnect" 
won't hide the actual originating device's phone number from the 
switching system's computers - just like putting fake email addresses 
won't hide the IP number of an Internet spammer.
