COMMENTS

Except for the first term every nonzero term is >1.
The larger numbers are probable primes. - Joshua Zucker, May 10 2006
The sequence probably continues 0 0 10 0 0 0 0 0 0 4 0 0 0 130 6 0 0 0 4 0 0 0 0 0 6 6 0 0 4 0 4 0 0 0 0 0 10 10 34 0 0 0 0 but the 0's in that list that correspond to 103, 107, 113, 119, 133, 143, 157, 169, 187, 203, 209, are not proved (but if there is a term there, it is more than 500). - Joshua Zucker, May 10 2006
Not only must each nonzero term be >1 (to avoid divisibility by 11), it also cannot equal 2 (mod 3) to avoid divisibility by 3. - Joshua Zucker, May 10 2006

EXAMPLE

The term corresponding to 19 is 7, as 7 concatenation of 91 followed by 19 is the least such prime. (9191919191919119 is a prime).
