Having worked for 'the phone company' for awhile some years back, I know the SIT tone trick has been a favorite of the phone-tech savvy for some time. I never used it, but, because I had two lines at home and knew some special routing code tricks, my favorite things to do to telemarketers was to dump them to either the "howler" (that annoying loud noise you get if you leave the phone off the hook too long) or I'd dump them to the coin-op intercept recording, which would say "Deposit 25 cents, please... Also, if the same number called me back within 30 seconds, they'd get sent to the "twilight zone" which was simply a 'dead air' termination, usually used for testing the presence line impulse noise or ground hum.
