I am being sponsored by Syntress! They bought me an amazing dedicated server to run catonmat on. If you're looking web services, I highly recommend the Syntress guys!
I love to read science books. They make my day and I get ideas for awesome blog posts, such as Busy Beaver, On Functors, Recursive Regular Expressions and many others.
Take a look at my
Amazon wish list, if you're curious about what I have planned reading next, and want to surprise me. :)

I used more or less the same approach as you to sum the primes, up to using awk and "delete a[NR-41]". :-) I used "tr -s" instead to split the files to one prime per line. And I used "fgrep -xf" to compute the intersections of the files, which is probably slower than sorting and using uniq.
