And finally:

2579 is the smallest prime that can be expressed as the sum of thirteen consecutive Fibonacci numbers:
3+5+8+13+21+34+55+89+144+233+377+610+987

That's interesting - do we know if there are a finite or infinite number of primes that can be expressed as a sum of X consecutive Fibonacci numbers.  And if finite, how does this number relate to X?

Tommo, if you're interested in Prime Number behaviors, I recommend the Prime Curios page at University of Texas, Midland. I am not a mathematician, so I can't answer your question.  Sad Sad

Cool, thanks Chaffers.  2584 is a fibonacci number and is the sum of the first 37 primes.

This is a lot more exciting.
