Or: the set of the sum of every two elements of {n | 2n+1∈P} is the set of integers greater than 1. i.e.:1+1=2, 1+2=3, ..., 5+5=10,.... This is equivalent to the Goldbach's conjecture: every even integers greater than or equal to 6 can be expressed as the sum of two odd primes. Any revise in my conjecture?

Thanks! Neil published this, see comments on OEIS A005097.
