I think your sequence (78, 780, 897, 918, 1179, 1365, 1776, 2574, 2598,
2967, 3168, 3762, 4758, 5775, 5796, ...) is a nice sequence and it should
be submitted. Can you please do it?

I proved an interesting property of this sequence: " If n is in the
sequence then 10^m*n for each natural number m is also in the sequence. "
The proof is easy and I did it in four cases.
So all numbers of the form 10^m*78, 10^m*897, 10^m*918, 10^m*1179, 10^m*1365,
... are in the sequence.

Thanks,
Farideh
