Problem Statement

We say that a set MM{} containing 44 elements is "evenly connected" if for each element xMx\in M, at least one of the numbers x2x-2 or x+2x+2 belongs to the set M.M. Let SnS_n be the number of "evenly connected" subsets of {1,2,3,n}\{1,2,3\ldots,n\}. Find the smallest nn{} such that Sn2011.S_n \geq 2011.
