Agreed but I did click on the post purely cause of its odd choice of name.

So, what's an "ap" then? As a German speaker I am used to the word "stuhl" too. Which means both "stool" and also "chair". So I sit myself on stool every single day!

well I wouldn't pronounce it Stool - ap I would go with Stoo - lap. So people's chosen pronunciations may vary.
Maybe sto-olap was meant by the authors?
