Laramah Mosley is a pain researcher in Australia. He said that he went for a bush walk one day and he's wearing shorts. And as he's walking through the bush, he experiences a scratch on his leg. So sure, he felt the no-cereceptive signal go up to the brain. But because there was no anticipation, no expectation, no emotional - it became more painful. That's the affective nature of pain. This has nothing to do withno-cereceptors. Your subjective experience of pain is totally different. It's not a one-to-one relationship. I can stimulate yours the same way I can stimulate mine.
