> The ninja turtles connection is, even if you were talking about the artists, the more likely link :P

I know about Donatello, that ninja turtles thing has fortunately passed me by. If you hadn't mentioned it I had never known there was such a thing as a 'donatello ninja turtle' and now I need to purge my storage of this utterly useless factoid.

I don't appreciate the downvote. I've pointed out a nomenclature issue, pointed out why i think it's a bad choice. If you disagree with me, fine. But this isn't reddit. Defend your point instead.
Your problem with downvotes is yours, if you don't want to risk being downvoted you should probably not comment here. It happens. This 'not being reddit' (or slashdot for that matter) has nothing to do with it.

Downvotes are a way to push non-relevant comments to the bottom of the discussion. And I really believe this ninja turtles stuff is a waste of space, I frankly don't have any desire to see stuff like that on HN.

As for my point, I think enough bits and unique ids have been wasted explaining it, if you wish to hold on to your position that the ninja turtles are the first thing that comes to mind when you hear Donatello that is entirely your problem.
