Okay, sounds good.

What exactly is meant by "What is interesting is that people who reported feeling a slight improvement during the standard ten-day placebo run-in introductory phase of a study seem to have a better chance of responding well to the active agent. I don't think this observation is consistent with an agenda determined to equate placebo with nul. I imagine this result was as surprising to Quitkin's team as it is to me." Could you please rephrase(I'm stupid)?

You're right about the big words; I just didn't want to take everything Quitkin said as fact.
