I've often wondered if "Qc Na" were a pun of some kind.



In the link they posted:

> I'll take some koanic license and combine Norman Adams (alleged source of "objects are a poor man's closures") and Christian Queinnec ("closures are a poor man's objects") into a single great Zen language master named Qc Na.


And maybe an unconscious play on Viet phonemes like Thích Quảng Đức or the Chùa Quốc Ân of Huế.
