That's a keeper. Who maintains the crank score list again?

I found myself referencing John Baez's crank score list just the other day to create this post: Dr. Kintsugi Field Equation.
Kintsugi
(金継ぎ) is a Japanese craftsmanship technique that repairs cracked pottery with gold sprinkled resin.
What I did for my post was look at John Baez's list and start at the high valued entries at the bottom and work my way up toward the top in almost exact order.

Chris Caldwell created a crank score list specific to prime number research. This Wikipedia page: Crackpot Index, contains references to Baez's and Caldwell's lists and another from 1962. That one is worth looking at too because Fred J Gruenberger explains his reasoning.

Thanks "chappy".

Anyway, the rules say that in order for me to win the $1,000,000.00, my proof must first be published in a peer reviewed journal.

Thus, since Asians are very good at math, I decided to send it to the peer reviewed Asian Journal of Mathematics and Applications which you can find here:

http://scienceasia.asia/index.php?jo...path%5B%5D=32"

As you can see, they refereed and published it.

Doesn't that make you happy?

Don

According to the rules, there's a two year "waiting period" after publication.
