I should have thought of that, but my second line doesn't use that method
(it's on a separate jack altogether) so I didn't.  It may make a difference
whether you order the second line when the wiring is being run or later
(mine was later -- moving into an already-wired apartment -- and the Bell
man may have been reluctant to trust the previous installer's wiring).
