    save me) want to know (I confess) everything about Mersenne primes and
    exactly why the Lucas test works...

    Ja, me too.

    1. Mathematics is the final frontier of knowledge...

    2. Gratification research is (or will be) an ongoing
       engineering and architecture problem...

    3. The search for mathematical truth is at least as old

    Wow Lee, this is good stuff. Very well written post.
    There is indeed in our human minds a joy of finding things
    out. Once this drive somehow results from some randomly
    evolved combination of amino acids and protoplasm, the
    end result is difficult to imagine.
