1. Apparently identical to A007387 but for latter's third term 3. 2. Attention directed to remainder upon division of a term by its (composite) argument, when latter =1 or 5 (mod 6). Possible factorization tool for impostor candidate primes? 3. Recurrence period, any length-five string of term values (mod 6) found in the sequence: 2^3*13*31, to Perrin's three-term period of 7*13. Note 13= 2*6+1, 31 = 5*6+1. 4. Query: Smallest pseudoprime >9. 5. Query: Closed form for nth n-th term.
