I got this e-mail from Rytis at PrimeGrid today:
" Dear Primefinder,
Congratulations! Our records indicate that a computer registered to you has
found a unique prime number. This computer is running BOINC, is attached to
the PrimeGrid project, and is assigned to the Twin Prime Search. What makes
this prime unique is that it's large enough to enter the Top 5000 List in
The Largest Known Primes Database."
This was a pleasant surprise.
A Titan is "In the mid 80's Samuel Yates began the list of "Largest Known Primes" and coined the name titanic prime for any prime with 1,000 or more decimal digits. He also called those who proved their primality titans"
