Really. I worked across the hall from the guys inventing it.

The signals from ADSL are about 1% the strength of the signals from voice. 
There's no connection there other than you to the line card. That's why you 
can still talk on the phone when you have ADSL.

(Now, without appropriate filters, maybe nowadays you can hear the ADSL. And 
it's doing things vaguely modem-like. But only over the wire. By the time it 
gets to the switch, it's on a separate path already.)
