%C A020898 These numbers are the cubefree sums of two nonzero rational cubes.
%C A020898 This sequence does not contain A202679, which has members that are not cubefree. - _Robert Israel_, Mar 16 2016
%C A020898 Notice that 34^3 + 74^3 = 48*21^3 = 6*42^3 because 48 = 6*2^3 is not cubefree, but now 17^3 + 37^3 = 6*21^3 and 6 is already listed in the sequence. - _Michael Somos_, Mar 13 2023
