<italic>Abstract
I will discuss the use of hadron-hadron collider event topology as a
tool to enhance signal over background. Modified Fox-Wolfram "shape"
variables will be employed to characterize event topologies and used
as inputs for neural networks and Fisher discriminates. As examples of
this approach, I will discuss heavy higgs production at the LHC and top
quark production at the Fermilab collider.
