What would cause my barely used green bearing to do this?

Green bearings just don't work well with black and white thinking. You're just going to get some kind of...

lighter or darker green. Not like pink or something where it's a whole new color.

I think that's going to be my take-away from this.

So if we're going to battle out, can we please just start posting hyperlinks to other threads where we have all (Me included) said the same stuff before?

I'll start:
Axle bearings
I'm just thanking God: No Green Bearing discussion.
