It may seem like a long time to you, but I've been interested in Mersenne
Primes as an observer since around 1978-9, and as a participant in GIMPS before
primenet,
back when exponents were more like 700,000 rather than 7,000,000, which has been
what, 3, 4 years?
Moreover, George and Scott have always been very clear and forthright about
what's going on in GIMPS/Primenet. I've never met George and Scott in
person, but I've dealt with them in regard to GIMPS/Primenet, and I want
to take this opportunity to say publically that they are a primary reason
that almost all my idle cycles remain dedicated to the GIMPS.
