Firefox is multi platform and open source, and no doubt a large number of the developers are from a strong open source Linux (or other open source unix like) background.

i remember! after you remove the marshmellow from the vacuum it will shrink!
i think.

well heres one website...almost explains how they got the name

http://www.newton.dep.anl.gov/askasci/gen99/gen99440.htm

There really is a plant called a marsh
mallow (found in marshes, natch) which produces a sticky stuff not
unlike half-cooked gelatin or egg whites, which can be whipped to a
froth.  Add sugar or honey, and you have a tasty delicacy suitable for the dainty digestion of pharaohs and their princesses
