I have been working on getting exactly that sort of cognitive system

I don't know:  perhaps you think it is especially difficult because you 
have not done much work on it.

Conventional approaches to AI may well have trouble in this area, but 
since my approach has been directed at these kinds of issues since the 
very beginning, to me it looks relatively straightforward in principle.

The real issues are elsewhere.

I agree!  The significant obstacles are elsewhere.  The integration of ideas 
and the ability to index large volumes of information so that recognition 
systems can find them quickly are two problems that I see as particularly 
difficult.  Even if we were able to show how to get the job done for a special 
case it would not necessarily translate into a feasible and extensible general 
program.
