Except for the 1 at the start, the terms appear to be the values of n for
which r(n)-r(n-1) and r(n-1)-r(n-2) have the same sign, where
r(n) = A005132(n).  E.g. going from r(4)=2 to r(5)=7 to r(6)=13 we
increase twice in a row, so 6 is in A064970.  Going from r(21)=63 to
r(22)=41 to r(23)=18 we decrease twice in a row, so 23 is in A064970.
