COMMENTS
No more terms < 10^14. - David Wasserman, Jul 21 2005
The sequence is infinite. One can always multiply an n-digit palindrome by 10^n+1 to get another term. - Franklin T. Adams-Watters, Jun 06 2006
a(25) > 10^18.
EXAMPLE
a(6) = a(7) =a(8) = 2112
2112 = 2*2*2*2*4*33
2112 = 2*2*2*2*2*2*33
2112 = 2*2*2*2*2*2*3*11
