A000001 is  http://www.research.att.com/~njas/sequences/A062868

Ignoring that, the series start at successive terms 1,4,31 1,5,66 1,6,143 
1,7,267  in A000002-5

Forming series from those shifting columns gives A000011-13 (at the moment), 
which have linear recurrence relations.

Remarks:
1.  This seems strange, since you'd think the even and odd n would screw up the 
series, when it comes to counting excess left over right moves.
2.  A000001 doesn't seem to fit the recurrences for n=0, for no reason that's 
obvious, unless I've made a hand calculation error.  The definition seems to 
suggest it would fit.
