Our chiropractor told me recently that during his training he worked in hospital with a specialist MD who described folks with chronic back pain as follows (in alphabetical order):
copers
dopers
mopers
no-hopers
I'd consider the participants here to be in the first category. But it's not always easy to explain, and IMHO he summarized things neatly.... :-)
