How about in different bases? In base 2, we can start with 111 (7). Can 
this continue? I don't see how off hand, though I haven't really tried 
very hard.

Perhaps we can get a sequence of how far such a sequence can be 
extended in each base.

Yes, the denouement was abrupt. Thank you, David! I have a single count 
of
(102853,99095) at #17187. To put it back into Eric's domain, we have a
17187-term sequence: 22 .. 1028531990952 or 22 .. 9909521028531 with 
lots of
in-between variations. Perhaps if we settle on the smallest possible 
term (that
realizes the full 17187-term sequence) at each location where more than 
one
value is possible, we have a well defined sequence. I don't think I'm 
up to
calculating it.
