COMMENTS
Integers m such both m and m+1 are terms in A027861.
All corresponding primes are == 1 mod 4 (A002144 Pythagorean primes) and terms in A027862.
No such m such that also (m+2)^2 + (m+3)^2 is prime.
EXAMPLE
1 is in the sequence because 1^2+2^2 = 5 and 2^2+3^2 = 13 are both prime.
4 is in the sequence because 4^2+5^2 = 41 and 5^2+6^2 = 61 are both prime.
