RE: primes as far as the eye can see, discrete continua

What about where N=1? I don't understand. You can only have an infinite number (or number of progressions) where the number of numbers in a number is inifinite. -TD

Saw in a recent _Science_ that Ben Green of Cambridge proved that for any N, there are an infinite number of evenly spaced progressions of primes that are N numbers long. He got a prize for that. Damn straight.

Now back to the decline of the neo-roman empire...
