Mathmatical scholars across the world including Stephen Hawkins are today praising the services of a telephone number subscription provider, eReceptionist. When he saw their advert stating "We have the perfect number for you?" he never for one minute expected to find one of the rarest and most sought after prime numbers in the world. It is 7.8million digits long and is written as 2 to the 25,964,951st power minus 1.
Stephen Hawkins said (in his usual digitally enhanced way), "I am amazed, I called them up and they asked me what kind of number I would like, I immediately said I'd like a nice prime number and hey presto there it was, one of the rarest numbers ever seen..!" Upon leaving Stephen proudly handed out business cards displaying his new phone number, which to be honest is ridiculous as it would take the average human 28yrs to dial it..
