COMMENTS

The sum of the reciprocals converges to 0.4154254016622336549103692152614908366885449298862362851444631680740051..

EXAMPLE

The first two twin primes are 3 and 5, so the first term is 3 and the second term is 15.  The next two twin primes are 5 and 7, so the third term is 5*15=75 and the fourth term is 75*7=525
