NEW YORK (CNN) -- You'd think a lesson in anesthesia would
put you to sleep. But what if everyday people got to switch
places with doctors who put patients "under?"

School of Medicine in New York.
As Correspondent Jeanne Moos explains, some of the most
important participants in the class are real "dummies."
