The Dark Side of the Placebo Effect
#3
RE: The Dark Side of the Placebo Effect
That is a very interesting article. I think we had a thread a while back where we discussed our nightmares and dreams. I've had these experiences of sleep paralysis combined with nightmares off and all most of my life, beginning, I think, when I was an adolescent. They don't happen often, but when they do, they are usually very frightening. Fortunately, one hasn't killed me yet.
'The difference between a Miracle and a Fact is exactly the difference between a mermaid and seal. It could not be expressed better.'
-- Samuel "Mark Twain" Clemens

"I think that in the discussion of natural problems we ought to begin not with the scriptures, but with experiments, demonstrations, and observations".

- Galileo Galilei (1564-1642)

"In short, Meyer has shown that his first disastrous book was not a fluke: he is capable of going into any field in which he has no training or research experience and botching it just as badly as he did molecular biology. As I've written before, if you are a complete amateur and don't understand a subject, don't demonstrate the Dunning-Kruger effect by writing a book about it and proving your ignorance to everyone else! "

- Dr. Donald Prothero
