Oct 3, 2013 at 15:45 | comment | added | Kieren MacMillan | I appreciate your answer, but my congruence/divisibility work (see main post) bolsters my intuition that there is a much easier proof in this special case. I'll give it a couple of weeks of poking around, and then come back to accept your answer if I've given up. Thanks again! | |
