[seqfan] Re: Extending erroneous A094333 ?

[Jim Nastos]

Tony,
  Is that really enough justification?

  I think I side with Paul Tek's comment here ... that if multiples such as
"2" or "4" or "8" are allowed to be considered concatenations of
"successive numbers" (obviously allowing for trivial concatenations) then
the next multiple of 8 (being 16) should be the 5th term of the existing
sequence.

  Why would trivial concatenations only be allowed for single-digit terms
and not for others?
