This is an old site, but delightful nonetheless. . .written with a curiously charming german accent our hero Ulli (and his tortoise Jetta) must be everyones favorite pervert. NOTE: This site deals with, um, adult themes in a tasteful and humorous manner (meaning that action is implied, not stated). Probably very suitable for someone your working with. Definitely not suitable for children. http://www.michaelkelly.fsnet.co.uk/karl.htm

If, like me, you work on the computer you sometimes think that you have seen it all. . .by which, there is nothing on the net that is interesting that you haven't yet discovered. This is probably not true, given that you would probably need a lifetime to view all the content that's being added to the web in just a day. Here's a link that I find rather inspiring, if only for the gallery - not just a link, but a road that opens into a whole new virtual city of wonder. . .http://spacecollective.org/
Prime Numbers

Prime numbers are numbers that are divisible by themselves only and one.
The series begins 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31, 37 and continues (possibly) into infinity.
They can only be checked in reverse - meaning, there is no formula that will create a prime number, only formulas that factor and check if a number is prime. Is it possible to create a formula that will predict all prime numbers?
And when we have that solved, what is the formula that will create or predict all Mersennes Primes?
Email me the answer, but be sure to take credit for it first.
