Jan, unsolvable problems are the nature of the universe, otherwise there are no challenges; I'm sure I read that somewhere!
I too went through Kepner Tregoe training back in the late 1980s when I was a research team manager with Hewlett-Packard. The technique, like so many, is common sense but once put into a process really works. I heard that the Apollo 13 team used K&T techniques to think through what to do to rescue the mission; I suspect folks from K&T were called in too. I still use the When, How, What, Why thought process on more difficult problems and even in genealogy (a hobby of mine) to try to trace folks in the distant past that don't seem to leave traces where I expect them to be. Colin, I loved your thought process on the misfire problem.

Anyway how come I still have sometimes what seem unsolvable problems? Is it being a self employed male, married with children who owns a Morgan? Or is it just because I`m human and will never learn?
