Question on static

Joe Van Dyk

A static object, as far as I know, exists from the time it's constructed
until the end of the program.

So, why's it called "static"? It doesn't seem like a very descriptive
name.

If something is static, its not moving. It stays where it is. Suppose
that might be on take on it.
