[TowerTalk] Thrust bearing re-grease

So how do we explain Wayne's experience where lightly greased did a much
better job than non-greased?  Maybe there is no one set recommendation
but instead two.  In a dusty environment - don't grease;  In a less
dusty environment - grease.  Any other conditions or suggestions anyone?
Let's hear your experience.

No conundrum. The Rohn TB's should not be greased. The grease just
attracts 
and hangs onto particulates and other junk  and will accelerate wear.
