There is an interesting article in Scientific American (Feb 1990)
concerning pain and morphine.   The thrust of the article was that
morphine, when taken solely to relieve pain is not addictive but 
care givers are afraid to dispense it adequately because they 
are afraid the victim will become addicted regardless.

I simplified that enormously.

Comments anyone?
