<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Besides the exclusion of 6 and inclusion of 10,
this sequence contains</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>several odd number and multiples of 4, all of which
can be represented</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>as differences of squares (someone already
mentioned this). You can</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>understand how these errors throw doubt on the
remaining values in</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>your sequence.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Also, there has been ample discussion to the effect
that it takes some</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>seriously high-powered math to show that any
particular element </FONT><FONT face=Arial size=2>is in</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>this sequence. In other words, the elements
in the seqence you describe</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>are at this point conjectural. This is not
bad thing, there are many</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>conjectural sequences in the OEIS, for example,
there are several</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>conjectural sequences associated with the Goldbach
conjecture.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I myself submitted conjectural sequence
A023057, related to the current</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>discussion.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I know that Neil is down on adding new keywords to
the database at</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>this point in history, but a "conj" keyword for
conjectural sequences might</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>really be useful.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN class=200403604-08102002>OK,
and what the number theory says now:</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN class=200403604-08102002>can
6 be represented as difference of two full powers (not powerful numbers)
</SPAN></FONT><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN

<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN class=200403604-08102002>Only
imagine these lots of fullpowers and why not differ by 6?
