Search for the following at Google Groups and you'll come across a thread I started on the sci.math newsgroup many moons ago. (I would provide the URL but that extends to several lines!): crwhite at comp group:sci.math fermat extend Click to view the complete thread to see some of the replies I got. I know for a fact that part of that particular thread is missing because one kind soul provided a counterexample matching x^4 + y^4 + w^4 = z^4, and that's not there now. Here's a spooky coincidence that doesn't quite fit your criteria: 3^2 + 4^2 = 5^2 3^3 + 4^3 + 5^3 = 6^3 Carl
