Information on Fermat's Last Theorem[edit]

This mathematical tidbit that was placed into he episode - an apparent disproof of Fermat's theory that it is impossible for "x^3 + y^3 = z^3" - has a huge cultural impact, which should be mentioned in the article. An example of a source that could be used is at the Slate article Homer’s Last Theorem. I don't want to start tampering with a GA so I instead request this information be added.--Coin945 (talk) 13:20, 19 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
