As a matter of theoretical policy, the above is correct.  

As a matter of practice today, the FCC doesn't give a hoot what the programming
is like unless there's a renewal challenge, at which point they'll go in
and look at the licensee's "public affairs" record.  If it REALLY STINKS,
the challenge may be considered.  

Radio programming has been de-regulated for YEARS now.  It is commission policy
that formats are a matter for the market.  If the licensee can keep funding
the station to play alternative-country music, fusion jazz, comedy, or test
tones, the FCC doesn't care until renewal time and THEN only if there's a
challenge.

I'm not quite on the topic, but does anybody know of currently existing
Malay cookbooks?  My S.O.'s dad is Malay and is thinking about writing a
cookbook (his curry is great).  If there are some already, I'd like to
let him know so he can check out the competition, and if people are interested
in seeing a Malay cookbook on the market I'd like to tell him also.

E-mail please!

There's a Straits Cafe on Geary (forgot the cross street, it's kinda
west past the Synagouge(spelling?)). It's suppose to be Singaporean
but I'll stick with the curry and main dishes. The 'hawker' style
dishes are not authentic at all, actually they're not even passable.

The Richmond, the area north of Golden Gate Park and west of Stanyan,
is the true epicenter of asian foods in San Francisco.  Along Clement
Street and Geary Blvd from about Stanyan to 33rd ave or so you can find
every conceivable variety, generally of rather high quality.

Straights Cafe Singapore Restaurant in The Richmond, 3300 Geary near
Stanyan.  I went there once and had some kind of curry whose name I
can't remember, but I _can_ remember that my mouth was awash in a 20
minute orgy of spice after I ate the last bite.  Yumm.

There is also an Indonesian restaurant on Clement Street, just a few
blocks from Straights which has a more pedestrian atmosphere and food
that is remarkably unremarkable.  It'll do in a pinch.

Zinfadel is the truly californian grape, and it makes a very pleasant
wine. Trader Joe in Menlo Park has very, very good prices, but their
store clerks are not too knowledgeable. Ask for the wine buyer and
get his/her advice. Alternatively, go to Beltramo's and seek their
advice. It will be generally worth listening to. They have a very good
selection -- maybe the best on the Peninsula -- but they are a littlr
more pricey than Trader Joe. An expert might look in at the Price Club,
but I haven't checked them out recently. Go for the white or just off
white (blanc de noir or "eye of the peacock" colors).

I got a few tips on where to find those Kaffir lime leaves, and a few
requests to share any info I got, so I'll summarize:

From jyc@leo.Stanford.EDU (Jon Corelis):
I've bought them frozen at the New Castro Market on Castro near Dana
in Mountain View.  It was some time ago, but they probably still have
them.

From "Piper" <dlema@twg.com>:
I think most Vietnamese groceries carry them; try Dai Thanh (sp?) in
downtown San Jose.  That's where I got them.

From Kathy Walrath <Kathy_Walrath@NeXT.COM>:
I don't know of a place in the South Bay.  If you get desperate enough,
or if you  
happen to be in San Francisco, there's a place on Geary that's a Thai
grocery store.  I  
believe it's called "Thai Market" or "Bangkok Market" or something like
that.  It's on  
the north side of Geary, a few blocks west of Masonic.  I think they have
a white sign  
that sticks out perpendicular to the store front.  
They seem to have mostly dried, canned, and frozen foods -- not many
fresh foods.  I  
got frozen pandanus leaves and kaffir lime leaves there, plus many other
Thai  
ingredients such as shrimp paste and palm sugar.

From platt@synaptics.com (John Platt):
Try Tin Tin Market on El Camino, in Mountain View, between Dale Avenue
and Bernardo (south of the 85).. I believe I bought my (dried) Keffir
lime leaves there.. You would like Tin Tin: it's full of slack.

Thanks to everyone who responded!

Is the law really that tight?  Couldn't a restaurant owner say,

Yes.  Go to First Watch.  If it's anything like the one in Pacific Grove,
the atmosphere is great, the food is wonderful, and the prices are really
cheap.  They put a pot of coffee on your table and so you never have to 
wait for a re-fill.
