I talked to one of the managers of Paragon Cable.  He told me that
their existing cable equipment could not support any channels higher
than 59 - something about the quality of reception being comprimised
at higher frequencies.  So they would have to bump off an existing
channel to fit in The Sci-Fi channel.  Maybe one of those pay per-view
First Choice channels; they have four of them...
