Hey, [B][U]I[/U][/B] found the largest prime!

(for the first time since it was added, and we swear that we didn't use refresh)

We are curious if anyone ever found the "2". We don't want to try refresh, that would be cheating. But we access the forum as often as possible :razz:

This just in case that "2" is really in, we have a vague, conspiracy idea, that the gerbils didn't start with those having so few digits... (we never saw a 4 or 5 digits, actually, maybe only those discovered by GIMPS were added?)

Looking at the logo below, I'd consider that last solution... :razz:

Happy lunar new-year-of-monkeying-around, all
 

My sis had a work event in the South SF Bay (where I live) last night which included a Chinese-New-year-themed dinner, she stopped by after and brought some leftovers, and we compared our Chinese zodiac animals. I told her the story of how I found out my animal back in college while hanging out in the martial arts room with some Taiwanese guys who were in the Kung Fu club. I was hoping for something ferocious, but on hearing my birth year mild-mannered bookish Andrew does some quick mental math, cracks into a grin, puts his hand behind his head while making a V-sign and waggling his extended fingers and says "bunny rabbit." (Which is only ferocious with 'a mean streak a mile wide' in certain films by Python, Monty Ltd; otherwise it rarely rises above the occasional vicious bout of bum-nibbling.) Sis thought that was very amusing until I looked hers up and told her she's a [url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snake_(zodiac)]Snake[/url]:
[i]
In Chinese symbology, Snakes are regarded as intelligent, but with a tendency to be somewhat unscrupulous.
[/i]
Which fits - she's in marketing. (Not that there's anything wrong with that. :)

[I should add that in the alternative animal-zodiac of the Vietnamese lunar calendar the rabbit is replaced by the cat, which seems to fit me better - extreme creature of habit, loves to sleep late, inherently contrarian, more of a meat than carrot eater, etc.]

[Speaking of cats being extreme creatures of habit, see Xyzzy's link above.]

Oh?? I thought cats eat only cucumbers... (see at minute 3:55)

That is good to know, though I doubt we will be able to go trans-Atlantic by then. :smile:

Do you know if the collection will be displayed anywhere else?

I don't think so, though there are other events here throughout the year to mark the 500th anniversary of his death.
