Its not just radio. Star Trek Voyager is running at 3AM now locally,
and our EyeTV is set to record it, meaning we get to see the TV
commercials targeted at people who are awake at 3AM. The funniest is
the ad for the company that will file a patent application for
"inventors", which features a 3D computer graphic of a rather stupid
looking caveman starting a fire and saying "uggh". Am I supposed to
identify with the caveman? Feel superior to the caveman? I don't get it.

The other ads are for electronic chairs for the infirm, which I guess
would cover a large portion of the 3AM Voyager viewership. :-)
