In my opinion it is possible to spend too much time reading others works and not enough time thinking about them and ones own views. The reality is that if a single one of these papers had any real application to the real world problems they'd stand out light a nova in a eclipse. Unfortunately they don't, and probably won't since the sorts of research and dialog (and I use that term loosely) is limited. One would do better, for themselves and society, if they were to read to the point they think they understand the problem and then quit reading and start modelling. The solution(s) will not only be unexpected but they will come from unexpected sources. "Study nature, not books."
