EXAMPLE
a(1) = 126 is in this sequence because 126 = 2 * 3^2 * 7 is a 4-almost prime and reverse(126) = 621 = 3^3 * 23 is also a 4-almost prime.
a(2) = 225 is in this sequence because 225 = 3^2 * 5^2 is a 4-almost prime and reverse(225) = 522 = 2 * 3^2 * 29 is also a 4-almost prime. (That 225 and 522 are concatenated from entirely prime digits is a coincidence, as with 2223).
