Mar 1, 2011 at 7:55 comment added Gerhard Paseman Thomas, not quite. As in bounds on Warings problem, there are finitely many numbers that require (something like) 9 cubes, while the rest are at most asum of 8 cubes. Vinogradov did not show that EVERY odd integer is tne sum of 3 primes, he showed all but finitely many are. O. Ramare was part of the team that arrived at the value 6.
