You had to ask about the name, didn't you? :-)
See the explanation here: http://perlmonks.org/?node_id=426037
You can follow this link safely (it's a perlmonks node), but a word of
caution: in that thread, a guy explains the origin of the name, and
provides another link... for the love of god, *do not* follow that
link!!! :-)
