Since you had ready access to that factorization of 2^613-1,
I now could double-check both my assertion that it was not prime as well as the correct functioning of my self-built integer arbitrary precision calculator, which is currently in mothballs since I'm on a different computer now. Thanks for the factors. |

As a result of not having to actually factor 2^613-1 on my own,
I was able to relocate my YJ-Conjecture, It starts at post#11 of thread 41st Known Mersenne Prime Reported!! in the Lounge. This connects to a (possible) proof of the Infinitude of the Mersenne Primes, currently in progress. That would be the automatic corollary. I'll have to check what I put into the wiki and wikipedia first ... Can't get in, forgot account names and passwords. Later. |

My calculator confirms the correct products producing M613 and M631.
Thanks. |

As of April 22, 2011 A.D., Alex Rodriquez,
popularly known as ARod (by way of some mathematically based name reduction known as nicknaming) is on the verge of hitting his 618th lifetime homer. This puts him squarely among the top HR sluggers of all time. Since 618 is not prime, the Mersenne number value of 2^618-1 is factorable. ARod's slow approach to the next Mersenne exponent, namely 1279, will undoubtedly take a while. In the meantime, Yankee fans can hopefully look forward eventually to homers 650 (maybe this season) and if he stays healthy 700 and maybe higher. |

As of today, New York Yankee shortstop Derek Jeter has
pounded out 3012 career hits with the Yankees. This is within reach of the Mersenne exponent 3217, but not this season. We look forward to Derek's prime accomplishment. |

Derek has, as of today, gotten 3215 lifetime hits.
Barring injury to the Yankee star, he should reach the Mersenne milestone of 3217 hits very soon. BTW of course 2^3217 - 1 is prime, and is the 18th Mersenne prime. The next Mersenne prime exponent is 4253, which may take a while for him to reach. The record number of lifetime hits is 4256.

I missed it.
In the last few days, Derek Jeter smacked his 3217th hit, and none of us was even there to witness it. What's next, not finding M48 in 2012? |
