After election day, those annoying pre-recorded election phone calls will end. But annoying pre-recorded sales pitches -- most of which are illegal -- will continue and the battle to stop them rages on. We'll find out how on the next Sound of Ideas. Plus, the FTC's John Miller Steiger and Plain Dealer Consumer expert Sheryl Harris will tell us how to avoid the plague of scam artists sure to descend in the aftermath Superstorm Sandy. Join host Mike McIntyre, Monday at 9 on 90.3.
