					<description>Hi Gary
thanks for the comment and welcome to the site. The books are out-of-print now but there is  link below to a site and I've preconfigured the search for you.
You should be able to buy some used books.
All the best

					<description>Hey buddy!  I absolutely LOVED the ROD DAMON series in the 1970s, can you tell me where I can purchase them now? Internet or store (I live in the NYC metro area)  Has the series continued or just the ones I had?  (I wish I knew what became of the ones I had.)  Is there any chance I can access them on line for reading?  
Well thanks for taking the time to answer these questions, I look forward to your responce.  Gary</description>

					<description>Craig
that's a good point and one that needs to go further. I see no place for the intense lobbying. At worst it leads to corruption, at best it gives the appearance of corruption.

The government needs to be like Caesar's Wife in these respects.
If politicians wish to raise the publics opinion of them then they could start by getting their noses out of the trough !
All the best

					<description>I'd like your thoughts on major companies and corporations lobbying government to change the law on copyright etc! :)

Surely our government has more to do re your policies than propping up corrupt organisations that routinely use extortion?</description>

					<description>Rod,

It all seems in order.... when do we start?  Presumably cabinet ministers privacy will be protected, for instance we don't want any MI5 interference while we're blogging..... for a start they won't understand most of it and might get the wrong idea :)

					<description>FF
many thanks, I hope I can count on your vote !

I would make the automated tele-marketing calls that plague people illegal !
I would make  illegal unsolicited sales people phoning at all times day and night.

As to those, press this then that then this then the phone goes dead systems I would get the Secretary for Business to impress on the idiots that run these companies that their customers, and importantly potential customers, want to speak to a human being, also a human being that they can understand !

Dell lost my business when their excellent telesales dept moved from Ireland to India !
Once again (and I hate having to prefix with this) it's not racist I simply gave up because we could not communicate - I had no idea what I was about to commit a £1,000 to and run my business from !

How much do these money-saving ideas actually cost business :?:
Cheers

mnay thanks

&lt;b&gt;Unemployment&lt;/b&gt;
There are unemployed people and unemployed people !
Those that are proud and want to work will be given every assistance to do so.
Those who are not prepared to work are going to be in for a much reduced life style.
It would be easy to tell the difference simply by looking at their past history and the system in place now that actively encourages some people not to work would come to an end.
I would bring in a voucher system to protect children in these circumstances rather than handing cash out.

&lt;b&gt;Public Transport&lt;/b&gt;
PT in this country is dire ! Especially when you compare it to other countries.
We need a system that makes people WANT to use it. Currently only those who HAVE to use it do so.
I believe in economy of scale, that is to say, ticket prices can really come down as more people use the system. Train tickets in the UK appear to be something of a luxury item at the moment holding those reliant on trains to ransom.
I fail to see why a country such as ours cannot have an integrated and efficient public transport system with prices that are reasonable.

Cheers
