Predictions for 2015?
 

:omg:

It won't be as smooth as 2016...:wink:

I like this one I saw recently:

I started 2014 with the goal of losing 20 pounds. I only have 25 to go.

WRT weight loss, we started 2014 at 224# and we are starting 2015 at 180#.

We have failed numerous (all?) times in the past to keep the lard off so 2015 will be interesting.

:never again:

well considering my mother passed away Christmas eve pretty crappy, though that doesn't feel unusual.

Science Man 88: Sorry for your loss.

Xyzzy: Congrats. Keep it up; I mean keep it off.

My condolences. Having lost my father not that long ago, I know tt´s a tough time to go through.
Hope 2015 will bring you peace of mind and joy of living.

As for GIMPS, I predict DCTF will be finished sooner than later, and that all of the exponents > 1M and TFed to less than 65 bits will be TFed to 65 or higher. For < 1M, I really don´t know, but hope that a fair amount of them will be factored through ECM.
Ah, yes, and I predict chalsall will eventually fix the defective GIMPS Visualization pages... :hello: :wink:

Congratulations! You must have worked very hard to lose all that weight. I'm sure it feels good.

My condolences. I hope this doesn't affect your living situation?

My sympathies. What family do you now have?

My mother died on a Thanksgiving Eve, and my dad went the next year on Christmas Eve.

I offer my condolences, as well. Know that you have many people here that care for you.
