Can I ask, why does the section on "___, that's where I'm a Viking" say there's "a supposedly definitive statement from a Simpsons producer/writer" in the FPP. There's no "statement" of any kind from any Simpsons staff involved in the FPP at all as far as I can see.

There was an interview, cited (months?) later in Metatalk, where one of the staff answered a mefite-submitted question on the subject with a speculative affirmative toward literality. Citation needed, I guess!

OK, I'll have a look for that. But it remains a simple factual error to say that the statement is in the FPP. The FPP is the question, which remains unanswered in that thread.
