With the greatest respect to you, BOAC, I believe you are looking though the wrong end of the telescope.

Surely, we should be looking at increasing the ability of the "100's" you mention, so they can either keep up with what the automatics are doing or, alternatively, manage to properly deal with the consequences?

It's rather like saying that too many boys and girls are failing their GCSEs, so we will lower the standards ...
