First of all, no, none of those exponents are mine. I have tons of
machines running Prime95 and I'm pretty high up on the list of
producers It's just that I think you're way off base on this...and I'm
sure other people on this list think the same too. <whine, complain,
etc.> George, (or someone else!) could you please explain to Aaron why
he is off base of this one.....something along the lines of "Ashton
has the right to set his machine to do whatever kind of work he wants
it to do. It's a fun project. Don't go around annoying people, etc.,
etc. blah, blah."
It's just not fair to take exponents that other people are working
on (in the hopes of being the co-discoverer of M39) and have them find
a "Exponent already tested" when their machine checks in two
months....especially after some of the exponents you listed seemed to
be more that 50% complete. Is it just me or are you just not thinking
straight this past week? (Compared with your regular postings, they
seem to be far more illogical!)
Thanks!
Ashton
