I hope that your point is not: we need more and tougher medicals.

I trust it is that pilots as a group reflect society as a whole, and we should do everything we can to help those who need help - and try and prevent situations which make people feel at the end of their tether.

One nomination:

Organisations, like the CAA, who as so blooming useless that normal people end up using strong expressions to vent their frustration.

So instead of tackling the inefficiencies and incompetence, the CAA puts a message on the phone saying, in effect: If we have managed to hack you off so much, you - as a normal human - feel like using traditional anglo-saxon at Level 6, we will prosecute you for assault.
