A revelation

The funniest things happen out there in Corporate America. Try this piece of correspondence out for size. Only the names have been changed to protect the innocent.

Dear Client,

Good morning. A couple of questions for you. How do the roles of
consultant and advisor differ? Aren't they pretty much the same thing? Is
it possible to have more than one advisor or consultant on an account?

Dear Grouse,

Yes, there can be more than one consultant on an account.
Consultant = advisor, advisor = consultant. It is the same word.

Client

Well I'll be
