Keep up, Jesse. From last night:

Prime Conjecture--I've proven it-- [...]

Um, that's BEEN one of my claims for the last few years that I'd
proven the Twin Primes Conjecture, so it's the Twin Primes Theorem,
but one would think you'd already know given that you claim to keep
up.

My results now cover most of number theory. The prime residue axiom
leads immediately to proof of the Twin Primes Conjecture. It leads
somewhat more subtly to disproof of Goldbach's Conjecture, so that is
false. But I also like to say that one is more tentative as I don't
like that result. (So I ponder ways around that conclusion.)

Interesting though that you were not aware, when I've noted it before.

The prime residue axiom is a REALLY BIG DEAL. Which is probably why
it so dominates search results.

Search: prime residue axiom

The world got it. You I guess did not. How many of you I wonder are
now aware of how big a deal the PRA is? It's probably one of the most
far reaching axioms in the history of mathematics.

IT is a REALLY big deal.

Here's how to know if your theorem is correct:
1. Download Coq (or any other theorem prover).
1a. If not Coq, then post your selected theorem prover before you start
working on it to allow others to assess its accuracy (i.e., it doesn't
have any backdoors).
2. Use it to demonstrate that your conjectured "proof" is correct.
3. Demonstrate on Usenet, i.e., with full examples, that you have done
steps 1 and 2.

Automated theorem proving was used to assuage people about the Four
Colors Theorem; it should be able to settle your result, assuming that
it is in fact correct.

I guess I don't recall you saying so explicitly.

Even archivists can miss a hunk of mathematical wisdom here or there.

Yeah, probably so. It's huge.

But I do wonder -- search results are, of course, a great indication
that your work is important and likely correct, but another great
indication that the world is actually taking notice would be if, oh, say
someone besides you mentioned your research. You know, if people were
really talking about it.

I'm sure it is.

A better search is <"prime residue axiom" references harris>.
http://www.google.com/#q="prime+residue+axiom"+references+harris

This search eliminates most of the links where you are the
only one talking about PRA. If you look at the 270+ hits from
that search, you notice that there are no links that reference
your PRA as a cited source.

None.
