In mathematics, a prime number (or a prime) is a natural number which has exactly two distinct natural number divisors: 1 and itself. An infinitude of prime numbers exists, as demonstrated by Euclid around 300 BC. The first twenty-five prime numbers are:
2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31, 37, 41, 43, 47, 53, 59, 61, 67, 71, 73, 79, 83, 89, 97 (sequence A000040 in OEIS). Source: Prime number - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The idea is to post a prime number immediately larger than the one posted earlier. Let's see how far can we take it from a mathematical and social point of view.
Here's the first prime number: 2
Let's roll the dice.  PS: Those who cannot calculate the immediate next prime number are advised to look for a prime generator program on the net.

Looks like we'll need a portable GUI program to make this thread continue for a long while.
