Jim Fougeron (email)
Jim Fougeron, a very active prime prover, found the following
prime expression of the form k*be±1. All the components used
(coefficient k, basenumber b, exponent e and constant 1) are palindromic !
The resulting prime isn't, we cannot expect too much of course.
The length of the prime nevertheless is an impressive 21264 digits.
