%C We use N_b to denote "N read in base b". Similar to A121263, but now we write the numerals in the stack in binary:

%C ......10....10.....10......10........etc.

%C ..............11.....11......11..........

%C .......................100.....100.......

%C ..................................101....

%C The next two terms have about 144 and 450 digits respectively.

%C A "dungeon" of numbers.
