I have a question and I do not mean to be overly nasty, but have you been projecting a state of obliviousness to your patients , given that they need to explain these elementary concepts to you on a frequent basis .; October 15, 2012 at 9:41 AM

""Same Same but different"" is often used in negotiation techniques when trying to sell you a lesser product/ fake knockoff for the same price you were negotiating for the display.; November 15, 2012 at 6:38 PM
