They go on forever... there is no largest prime.

I could spit out the very elegant proof by Erdos, but what's the point in that? In any case, if you haven't seen it, look up the proof by Erdos... amazingly simple. At the time of his proof discovery, the proof that primes went on forever was rather complicated.

Cheers all,
