I just noticed, the green eggs report doesn't show the amount of new topics created in the month. Might be an interesting number to hold next to the amount of posts!

Interesting?

No wonder everyone else is so cheerful all the time.

Would you be happier if the number were 1729, Marvin?

if the number was 1729

If the number was 1729.
Backatcha, baby.

Except that this is not a sentence... Right? (non-native here)

I am missing the reference too, 1729 is an interesting number according to Srinivasa Ramanujan ^[1] but I am not sure why this is relevant to Marvin (but then I have not read the Marvin's adventure books or seen the films - just heard part of the radio series).

I think you are right about the were in the conditional case — unless there is a special Marvin exception.

The reasons are not specific to Marvin, but rather to the view of interesting or uninteresting numbers, which my view of Marvin says he might care about.

*aware.
