Farnsworth Paradox - all google hits that I get are about Futurama. Does the paradox only exist on the TV show? Or is it also related to Philo Farnsworth who is a real person?

I'd expect this site to provide a "cultural reference" (foot of page) if there was a real world Farnsworth paradox, and on this basis, think it safe to say it is a Futurama invention. --Tagishsimon
As far as I can tell it relates only to an episode of "Futurama". I modified the article to reflect that. If it's important in the tv show it should be linked from there. Currently its and orphan other than the link here. Vfd candidate?-- Infrogmation 18:49, 8 May 2004 (UTC)[reply]
As a Futurama fan, I'd consider this article a candidate for deletion. It isn't even spelled right - the episode title is "The Farnsworth Parabox" not -dox. And there is no specific mention of a "paradox" within the episode dialogue. dmmaus 07:42, 9 May 2004 (UTC)[reply]
It's not even accurate - the box in the show contains another universe, not the same one. The specifics are covered well enough in the episode guide, so I've redirected it to there. sjorford 09:59, 11 May 2004 (UTC)[reply]
