Consider an in finite sequence consisting of distinct positive integers such that each term (except the rst one) is either an arithmetic mean or a geometric mean of two neighboring terms. Does it necessarily imply that starting at some point the sequence becomes either arithmetic progression or a geometric progression?

Many calculators have a reciprocal key $\boxed{\frac{1}{x}}$ that replaces the current number displayed with its reciprocal. For example, if the display is $\boxed{00004}$ and the $\boxed{\frac{1}{x}}$ key is depressed, then the display becomes $\boxed{000.25}$. If $\boxed{00032}$ is currently displayed, what is the fewest number of times you must depress the $\boxed{\frac{1}{x}}$ key so the display again reads $\boxed{00032}$? $\text{(A)}\ 1 \qquad \text{(B)}\ 2 \qquad \text{(C)}\ 3 \qquad \text{(D)}\ 4 \qquad \text{(E)}\ 5$
