Notes :

A108942  (which is now an unrelated sequence)  was created on 2005-07-20 by Jonathan Vos Post (whom I befriended electronically only  much  later)  as a home for the  finite  sequence  (0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,9,18,33).  Jonathan posted that with a reference to an article of mine and a piece of prose cut-and-pasted from it  (his motivations are explained elsewhere).  On 2009-10-24, M. F. Hasler  pointed out that the thing had already been filed much earlier as A007496, which is where the aforementioned prose can now be found.  This goes to show that almost every "cute" sequence is likely to be  already  part of OEIS.  Read before you write!

The simple sequence listed above as B101086 is not part of OEIS, although it was submitted at the indicated date, because it differs from two previously listed sequences  (A001607 and A077020)  by  signs  only.  Yet, that sequence has the simplest closed form among its siblings.  Originally, the EIS  (not yet "Online")  was essentially devised as a collection of unsigned sequences  (in the early printed versions, the lexicographic organization of the integer sequences was insensitive to signs).  This  historical bias  is still present in the current OEIS.  For example, I submitted A120629 as a sequence consisting entirely of  negative  values  (arguably, that's the best way ro present it).  It was immediately retitled and recorded as a sequence of absolute values, which now stands...
