You can email George about testing one of the exponents on his manual
testing page (www.mersenne.org/range2.htm). You should be aware that those
exponents are rather larger than those currently being given by PrimeNet.
This means a longer runtime (by about 8-10 percent) and reduced chance of
finding a prime.
