Include any other comments or information you want the Commission to consider in evaluating your compliance with the Children's Television Act (or use this space for supplemental explanations). This may include information on any other noncore educational and informational programming that you aired this quarter or plan to air during the next quarter, or any existing or proposed non-broadcast efforts that will enhance the educational and informational value of such programming to children. See 47 C.F.R. Section 73.671, NOTES 2 and 3. NOTE: Station checked "yes" on question 7C, because the form forces an answer of "yes" or "no." 7C should be just for stations that answered "yes" on 7B, and the answer for 7B for KOZL-TV is "no."
