Paul,
Its not unsolvable. In fact, all thought is explicable. But your discipline has an extraordinarily difficult problem of determining whether it’s an environmental problem, a harware problem, a resource problem, a developmental problem, a learning problem, or our failure to supply rigorous methods of mindfulness and fitness as preventative measures.

And possibly, we have expectations of the distribution of genetic load in the population that are unrealistic and unattainable in the modern industrial technological context where we are increasingly producing and living in the opposite condition of our evolutionary ancestors. If we watch tribal societies they are constantly self reinforcing and self regulating, and socially insuring, and we have created the enlightenment proposition of an aristocracy of everyone when not everyone has that abilty to self regulate, and self evaluate, and self insure, and we throw them into the adversarial marketplace without the training (religious or military) to function as a substitute.

But (we’re similar in age) IMO we have learned more in cognitive science and artificial intelligence in the past fifteen years than has propagated through the industry as change.
