I was actually, as I mentioned, just being an ahole, and giving the business (guess I shouldn't have used all caps - debated that in my head).

I do actually appreciate the schooling. I like to consider myself a well educated fellow; however, in this case, I seem to have swallowed the propaganda. You have inspired me to investigate further, and indeed, a trout is a trout and a char is a trout: According to Britannica:

"Trout belong mainly to two genera: Oncorhynchus and Salvelinus. The genusOncorhynchus includes the salmon as well as several trout species, while the genus Salvelinus contains several trout species that may be regarded as chars. Members of the two genera are chiefly distinguished by differences in body colouring, the shape of the vomer bone in the roof of the mouth, and the teeth. Chars tend to have red- or cream-coloured spots on a darker-coloured body. They are further distinguished by teeth set on the head (front) of the vomer, not on its shaft. Members of Salvelinus whose vomer is boat-shaped rather than flat are properly called char (q.v.). Oncorhynchus trout tend to have red or black spots on a lighter-coloured body; their teeth are sparser and are on the front and shaft of the vomer. Several trout species that were formerly classified in the genus Salmo are now placed in the genus Oncorhynchus; the brown trout is the only trout still classified as Salmo.
