Just a tiny little dab will do.
The thing that frustrates me about the debate is that both sides of the argument have merit. Real merit. When I've read the opinions of much-smarter-than-me engineers that explain why grease is a good idea I think, "Well yea, that totally makes sense". And then some other genius explains why its a really bad idea, I think, "Hmmm, he's got a good point there."
I don't know WHAT TO DO?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
