100's of hours in ED and didnt realize something so obvious till now

I will admit im not a snake expert and couldnt tell one from another in real life, unless maybe if it was rattle snake, but after looking at a few pics, it just dawned on me that all the ships named after a snake look like the actual snakes head. I love you FD..

Ok its time to point and laugh at me XD
 
Have you noticed the orca sounds like whale song. Noticed it in a station.
Nav beacons send out morse code.

I definitely noticed that about Python, Viper, and Anaconda. It took me a bit more to figure out why Cobra was named after a snake. Then I realized what cobra(snake) looks like with their hood spread, and it became clear)
Only mystery for me is ASP. Which kind of resembles snake's head, but with a bit of a stretch of imagination.
 
Being into herpetology as a kid, it's something I noted quite quickly - it's a very cool thing, I think...

have none of you read the dark wheel?

I am ashamed to say, I have read none of the ELite fiction stuff (except the novella that came with the ST version I bought back in '86 or '87). Something I plan to correct shortly. I'm hoping I can purchase digital versions, I do hate paying for shipping for books...
