Numbers that can't be written as a palindromic product, i.e., such that the concatenation of all digits of the factors yields a palindrome.

COMMENTS
Any number of factors 1 is allowed anywhere in the product.
The sequence contains all primes which are not palindromic when stripped of digits '1' on either side (for example 23, 29, 37, but not 13, 17, 19, 31 which can be written as 13*1, 17*1, 19*1, 1*31, etc., where the concatenation of all digits, "131", "171", ... is palindromic).

EXAMPLE
Any palindrome is trivially a palindromic product and therefore not in the sequence. Also not in the sequence are 10 = 10*1, 12 = 12*1, ..., 20 = 2*5*2, 21 = 1*21. Therefore the first term is a(1) = 23.
