So you think it is impossible to demonstrate anything in probability? -- Gerry Myerson (gerry(a)maths.mq.edi.ai) (i -> u for email)

The story is on pages 257-258 of that book. Dudley has an undated newspaper clipping reporting that Moore presented a proof at an Amer Math Soc meeting in Wellesley, Massachusetts. Other evidence indicates the clipping is from a midwestern newspaper during the Second World War. Maybe someone has tracked things down and told Dudley more details. I suppose anyone who really wanted to know could ask Dudley. -- Gerry Myerson (gerry(a)maths.mq.edi.ai) (i -> u for email)

Further to my previous post, there was an Amer Math Soc meeting at Wellesley in 1944. There's an article about it at http://projecteuclid.org/DPubS/Repository/1.0/Disseminate?view=body&id=pd f_1&handle=euclid.bams/1183506292 If that doesn't work, just type american mathematical society meeting wellesley into your favorite search engine, and it should come out near the top. The article mentions a paper by C N Moore, Convergence factors in general analysis, Abstract 50-9-221. Doesn't sound like twin primes to me, but who knows? The abstract of Convergence factors in general analysis, II, is at http://projecteuclid.org/DPubS/Repository/1.0/Disseminate?view=body&id=pd f_1&handle=euclid.bams/1183507138 and it has no reference to primes, twin or otherwise. OK, I found Abstract 50-9-221 at http://www.ams.org/journals/bull/1944-50-09/S0002-9904-1944-08189-5/S0002 -9904-1944-08189-5.pdf No mention of primes.
