I noticed something that I thought was strange and I thought
that some audiophile (?) may shed some light on the subject.

Michael Jacksons 'thriller' song starts with the sound of
footsteps walking from the right channel to the left channel
(on my home stereo and my car stereo).  However, when I hear it
broadcast on the radio (at about 92.7 FM) the steps travel from
left to right - 180 degrees out of phase!

Is there any known phenom that causes this or is it caused by
a lazy technician at the studio (like TV broadcasting of titles
over other programs)?  I checked my stereo to make sure that it
is connected correctly.
