COMMENTS
No term is the difference of two primes. - Juri-Stepan Gerasimov, Oct 10 2009
Goldbach's conjecture states that all even numbers > 2 can be expressed as the sum of two primes. If true, then this sequence contains all composites which cannot be expressed as the sum or difference of two primes. - Bob Selcoe, Mar 10 2015

EXAMPLE
93 is the first term because 91=7*13, 93=3*31 and 95=5*19 are all composite and there is no smaller odd composite with both odd neighbors composite.
