Subject: You're a... BENDER

During the Futurama episode in which the Planet Express crew first meet Flexo, Flexo states his serial number as 3370318. Bender then states his serial number as 2716057. The pair of robots then enjoy a brief period of laughter becausethey both have serial numbers that are the sum of two squares.

I, however, was not amused. I sat in dismay as one of my favourite tv shows destroyed my little remaining faith in the intelligence of humanity. You see, whilst 3370318 is a sum of two cubes (namely 119^3+119^3), 2716057 clearly is not. I find it pathetic that your script writers can make such a gross oversight and as a result completely spoil the show for the viewer.

If you can send me the pair of integers that you believe will produce the required sum I shall never email you again and will spend the rest of my days laughing inanely at your shows much as Fry did at the serial numbers in question.

Otherwise, I will be suing you for the expenses I have had to pay my therapist (haha, I said the rapist- thats funnier than badly thought out maths jokes). You shall hear from my lawyer shortly.

Oh yeah, and learn to pronounce your own fucking name.

Dickhead.

Your's lovinigly,

Wossy
