G'morning David,

 -> I jotted down the words "intractable" and "intransigent"
 -> originally;  they certainly get the stubborn, obstinant quality of
 -> the phenomena - but not the essence of appearing whenever
 -> elicited, no matter how....

 -> Any thoughts ?

 DW> Are you trying to elicit the behaviour of thinking?

Nor of consciousness,  but of a process like swimming. 

Swim behaviour appears first in the newly born as a temporary 
fixed-action-pattern,  presumably as a survival tool and not just 
to amuse people like me who love demonstrating the FAP to doting 
mums...

Gone by 3 months,  the behaviour has to be relearnt - when 
virtually any method of teaching shows the same success as any 
other.

There must be a word that fits such kind of phenomena ?

Miles.
