FCC Will Open a New Window for LPFMs?

I was asked, yet another weird question, of how I would like to be buried, when I finally bite the big one. The answer was actually pretty easy. Face-down, like a certain historical figure in the late 1980's, (I will not mention who, but some of you will get it, and that's enough.) Why??? It would be a burial that will satisfy everyone: (1) My enemies will say that it will show me where to go. (2) On the same point, I can have my enemies kiss my butt. (3) It will temporarily give someone a place to park a bicycle. See??? A WIN / WIN for everyone.

That rocks! I thought they'd never open up for applications again. When I heard about this in the `00s, I looked into it, but it's not really for individuals, it's for community radio, with a bigger staff and non profit sponsorship of the station. It might work if you had a group of friends on your side.

I'd want to open a LPFM in a storefront and people could hang out and chill to the tunes.
