    Ok.

    5,11,13,101,223,1277,1279,1616603,3772637849,51448351,
    115438255651987,1007002660975121,433241801791933


    Everything looks good in those two sequences, except maybe

    All you need is a sieving technique. BitTwiddler, here, is an
    ordinary desk computer. But the sieve hastens by a factor of 140000,
    and he pops out that that eleventh term (a(12), actually) in
    1.6 seconds.
