COMMENTS
Union, for all k>0, of (2k+1)-balanced prime numbers, i.e., balanced prime of order k, which are primes p_n such that (2k+1)*p_n = Sum_{i=n-k..n+k} p_i, where p_i is the i-th prime.

EXAMPLE
17 is in the sequence because 17 = (7 + 11 + 13 + 17 + 19 + 23 + 29)/7, (k = 3).
29 is in the sequence because 29 = (5 + 7 + 11 + 13 + 17 + 19 + 23 + 29 + 31 + 37 + 41 + 43 + 47 + 53 + 59)/15, (k = 7).
37 is a member because 37 = (7 + 11 + 13 + 17 + 19 + 23 + 29 + 31 + 37 + 41 + 43 + 47 + 53 + 59 + 61 + 67 + 71)/17; 7 & 71 are eight primes away from 37.
