(2 to the power of anything) minus one is not divisible by two. Try it with some smaller numbers. The prime quoted is, rather boringly, the largest number proven to be prime. Larger ones exist (as proven by Euclid) but none larger have been found yet. Sorry Clare, you picked my pet subject! andy

does anyone know why 1 isn't a prime?

A little aside - can you stop gate crashers in any way? I may not be in my prime [groan it was a very bad one] but I can always check in eh?

Erin is Prime Minister. Great. Once again, we all have to kiss Erin's butt. And in Heaven, too -- there oughta be a law against this.

Like all groups the highest and latest member sparks a ripple of excitement but there is always someone else just around the corner.

Moo, I would love the pecan roll. Anything pecan is a friend of mine. Ruth, no butt kissing in Heaven. Just quiet and tasteful worship is all I ask. babybear, exclusive clubs are only bad when I'm not part of 'em.

Maddie,I love a good threat. You have just earned yourself a bottle of gin and some tonic water to go with it. Get me in a headlock and you might get some Martini. I'll even throw in the Diet Pepsi.

Actually Babybear, Clare discussed it first and we decided given how silly it was likely to be Heaven was the most appropriate place so there!

Peregrinner, 69 is divisible by three, so you must ask nicely not just take the children.
