Cristian Goldbach, is the man who created the goldbach conjuncture. which states: any even # greater then 2 is equal to the sum of 2 prime numbers. as far as i know this has yet to be proven/disproven. which is suprising because he lived hundreds of years ago. i am currently studying his theory. i feel i am close to disproving it.

20 (which is an even # greater then 2)=7+13 (which are both prime #s)

2+14=16
Goldbach's Conjecture is that every even number greater than two can be expressed as the sum of two prime numbers. For example, 4 = 2 + 2, 6 = 3 + 3, 8 = 5 + 3, 10 = 7 + 3, 12 = 7 + 5, etc. Although the conjecture has been checked up to very large values and many weaker results have been proved, the conjecture remains open. Because it is so well-known and easily understood, it is frequently the subject of mistaken "proofs" by amateur mathematicians.
