- [Moderator's Note: The terms get used interchangeably sometimes; I
- should have used the proper name: Multi-Ring, which is the service
- which allows a second and/or third actual telephone number to be
- assigned to a main number and ring with a different cadence. You are
- correct that Distinctive Ringing is one number with up to ten callers
- entitled to cause a special ring when they call. PAT]
