There is a huge difference between them ... they are not even in the same timezone, with respect mate, you dont know what you are taking about, you have some vaild points and assesments of Ayre but most of your assesment of not liking him as a "md" are way off base.... essentially you are nowhere near qualified to make that assesment with respect ballbag

I always thought they were pretty much interchangeable, with one more old school British and the other more American? What are the differences?

on paper, they are equivilent as you say, but we weren't American when Parry was appointed so i don't think conclusions can be made about exactly what his role was from the job title.

Yeah I agree with you there, even identical job titles don't necessarily mean identical roles

Obviously we weren't American owned, I just meant I thought one was originally an American term for the same thing that has since come to be used just as often as the other here.
