[Boost-users] High level question on iterator_adaptor vs iterator_facade

I have worked through the tutorial on iterator_facade. (extremely cool library)- and I am reading about iterator_adapter- but what I am not seeing is the high level picture here. 
 
My Question:
 
In a nutshell- what is the basic difference between iterator_adapter and iterator_facade?
 
When would I use one over the other?
 
Any thoughts appreciated
 
thanks
