I found I cannot articulate effectively in words what the experience was like. To a vet I can say "well you were there so you know" and I don't need to elaborate. Do you feel the same way and explain your experiences with it?

I'm the guy dining facilities don't want to see coming in the door." That usually stopped any further discussion.
