%C A038606 Numbers n such that Prime(n) (mod n) begins the next cycle of terms in 
               A004648. Generally Prime(i) (mod i) exceeds Prime(i-1) (mod i-1) 
               but there are numerous times where for a short run Prime(i) (mod 
               i) is minimally less than its predecessor. Here n is substantially 
               less. See Labos's graph.
