[Healeys] Knock off grease

[Bob Spidell]

re: "I went to the anti-sieze because it didn't tend to leach out onto the spokes on long hot trips and make a mess like 
the grease did."

Trick I learned somewhere: Put a film of silicone RTV on the inside of the hubs where the spokes are anchored--no more 
grease oozing out.

I've tried everything to get the grease out; no luck (esp. with anti-seize).
