Subject: [seqfan] Conways 5th problem solved

Dear Seqfans, At the OEIS-50 Fest yesterday, John Conway offered $1000 for the 20th term of A037274 (well, he didn't phrase the question in exactly those words). The answer of course is a(20) = 3318308475676071413

(He meant to say a(67), I believe, but he neglected to check the OEIS before posing the question.)

Neil
