Where the responsibility for putting innovations into practice is spread over a large number of individuals, we like to think that there is a "free market" in ideas as in other commodities: proposals for reforms are advertised in print, and distributed to as wide a section of informed opinion as possible — typically through the letterspage of a quality newspaper: anyone scrutinising the letter-columns of (for example) the London Times will see that this is where a reformer with inventions to market, be they sound or idiosyncratic, hopes to convert the decision-makers
