I was just about to send Neil Sloane the following edit of A155030 when I
decided to look up my list of terms left out by the original author. The
list, 2, 19, 23, 29, 43, 47, 53, happens to match A155025 by the same
author, so now I'm not sure I understood A155030 correctly. I would
appreciate a second set of eyeballs to confirm or deny that A155025 and
A155030 ought to be merged into one.

%N A155030 Primes n such that the base 10 concatenation of pi(n) and that
prime n is composite (with pi being the prime counting function).
%e A155030 The third prime is 5, and the base 10 concatenation of 3 and 5 is
35, which is a composite number; thus 5 is in the sequence. The fourth prime
is 7, and the base 10 concatenation of 4 and 7 is 47, which is a prime; thus
7 is not in the sequence.

%E A155030 According to my understanding of this sequence, and assuming that
the original author was not able to compute elements beyond 67, the
following elements were mistakenly left out by the author: 2, 19, 23, 29,
43, 47, 53. The first prime is 2, and indeed 12 is composite. The  eighth
prime is 19, and we can verify that 819 is a multiple of 3, 7 and 13.
%C A155030 Changing the concatenation to the digits of the prime n first and
then the digits of pi(n) results in a completely different sequence.
