A simple 15 second delay before the busy signal would be hard to
tolerate, but the inclusion of a solicitation instead means that many
circuits will identify that a VOICE has answered...

If it was simply a question of too many phones or modems or faxes
redialing too fast for their system to handle, then such a delay would
be a burden I would grudingly bear. However, this is not the case -
QWest is instead operating a money-making scam offering to sell
redialing services, while simultaneously DISABLING any such devices
the line user may have formerly had!
