My submitted comment: If n is in the sequence and k|n then k is also in the
sequence. In the other direction if s and t is in the sequence and
gcd(s,t)=1 then n=s*t is also in the sequence. This gives that we need to
check only the primepowers, then we can easily build the rest of the
sequence. The primepowers in the sequence begins with: 2,4,8,31,373

ps. This can also speedup a naive search.
