In other oddness, I've found that signal on a tv that has a set top
digital cable box usually *leads* a pure analog cable tv by over a
second.  I have also noticed that sometimes they run different ads
simultaneously on the digital and analog streams, on the same channel.
 And 3 out of the 4 times I have observed this, the digital ad seems
to be trying to sell mediacom while the other is not -- wouldn't they
want to do that the other way round?
