Hello Raja,

there are a couple of stories floating around, some of them involving
literature [1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiasco_(novel). Others
contemplate the fate of poor PhD students who spend their lifes
hoarded into badly lit cubicles hacking away instead of enjoying the
summer sun outside their window-less office walls.

Maybe the truth behind all that is: someone needed to come up with a
name and this one stuck. ;)

Kind regards,
Bjoern
