Lexicographically earliest infinite sequence of distinct positive numbers such that, for n > 2, a(n) shares a factor with a(n-1) and R(a(n)) shares a factor with R(a(n-1)), where R(k) is the digital reversal of k.

COMMENTS
As the sequence is infinite no term, except a(1), can be a power of 10.
There are no fixed points in the first 200000 terms other than the first two terms, although more may exist.

EXAMPLE
a(9) = 18 as 18 is unused, shares a factor with a(8) = 15, and R(18) = 81 shares a factor with R(15) = 51.
