Twin Prime Birthday

After last year's Triple Prime Birthday, this year we have another somewhat unique birthday, a Twin Prime. We have many of these when young, but they get scarce as we age. After the pair (41,43) we have to wait for (71,73) to have another one. After 73, we have to live to be 101 before we hit another.

The real big event will be on January 31, 2016, when I turn 26000 days old.

I have a K-day calculator on my web site, hargrove.org, if you want to find out about yours.
