Nah; it was my fault for nitpicking. ;)  The (slightly but not always)
more accurate way to tell is to look at the bottom of the body.  Struts
have two holes aligned semi-vertically; this is what keeps them attached
to the hub/spindle, and keeps the hub/spindle vertical.  Like George
said.  Shock absorbers *generally* just have a round eyelet or bushing
or variation thereof, since they just damp motion, not locating
anything.

There are shock absorbers with spring perches and there are struts that
don't have the holes I've described; you will find exceptions to almost
every rule.  Geo said it best, though.
