- My memory was at fault, the problem whether there are infinitely many
- quadruplets 30n+11, 30n+13, 30n+17, 30n+19 of primes, as is the problem
- whether there are infinitely many twin primes p, p+2. However, I cannot
- buy the "almost certainly" designation -- as little as I can buy Math
- by authority. The question about quadruplet records still makes sense,
- however.
