Are there any quirky things about the History Channel that annoy you?
My big one for today is that they keep referring to Leonardo da Vinci as just da Vinci. I realize this is probably a popular reference because everyone knows him by that name, but they're really doing nothing but saying, "of Vinci" meaning the city.
Maybe it's just me, but I feel a historically accurate channel should properly refer to their main topic by his correct name.
This is also why the name "The da Vinci Code" is a ridiculous title for a book when it is specifically referring to Leonardo da Vinci.
