COMMENTS

Scan the sequence of prime differences (A001223) looking for new records, but append the record difference to the present sequence only if the difference appears at least twice in A001223 before it is beaten by a new record. - N. J. A. Sloane (njas(AT)research.att.com), Dec 30 2007

The sequence of primes where these gaps first appear is A133788.

These are the numbers that appear two or more times in A085237. - David W. Wilson, Dec 31 2007
