    When I was a grad student at Purdue my lead prof was always asking me, "How do I tell a Wildcat from a Hellcat", or "Is that an Iowa or a South Dakota?"

    I told him the easiest ways to tell the planes and ships apart, and I am thinking I could share those here, plus pick up some other tips from you Rogues.

    The idea may have merit, especially for newer members. Heck I might learn something myself.
