After all this discussion of possible metering on TWC I decided to check the
stats on my public router on at the outer banks (the public wi-fi network -
I figured, if any network, a public one would have a lot of bandwidth eaten
up).  What I found was interesting:

In/out packets 44281817/56033743 (1.86 GB/3.83 GB)

'cuse me?  More outbound than inbound?  This particular modem has a 3/1
connection so the outbound is faster than most however I still would have
thought, over 60 days, the download would have been much higher than the
upload.  I wonder if the counters wrapped.

What think yee?
