I posted this comment about the NYT placebo article on the Midnight Blues Cafe thread yesterday. I mention what seemed to me the most interesting comment in the article. Fascinating!

I can't find the Science Times section of the
NYTimes for last Tuesday, but it said something
that seemed amazing to me. I guess I could go to
NYT on the net for the interesting details, but
instead I'll just say what I remember. .

The subject was the placebo effect.

And this is the factoid:

There is a drug called Naxolone, I believe it was,
that blocks the analgesic effect of morphine.

And... it also blocks the analgesic effect of a
placebo.
