Naming

墨突莫不黔 -----《文子·自然》

It takes time to warm a seat.

这句话出自出自东汉·班固《答宾戏》，此处的原文是：

是以圣哲之治，栖栖遑遑。孔席不暖，墨突不黔。

汉语成语，原指东奔西走，每至一地，烟囱尚未熏黑，又到别处去了。后用其事为典,形容事情繁忙，犹言席不暇暖。

Comes from Dong Han's "Rhetoric Play", referring to a busy way of life - already on to the next destination before our chimney smokes from a cooked meal, before our seat is warmed - to remind us to slow down.
