I've found that if I imagine Natasha (from Boris and Natasha) reading the words out loud, I can sometimes figure out what the gist of the thread is.

Try it! Watch this clip, then imagine Natasha saying "Little Brainless Quips"

Part of the problem is OP has a habit of deleting his posts / replies which breaks the flow of the thread.

He also demands he not be quoted, part of deleting previous posts thing.

I don't get that, if one posts something that they are afraid to leave up for fear of ?????? then why post to begin with?

If not leaving any evidence behind is your motive, posting on an online forum probably isn't the best hobby.

EDIT: that's pretty cool, I quoted just before he deleted his post. Gotcha!

That's why I always quote his posts in full. Wouldn't want context to be lost.

They are no longer that scary!
If one is wrenchy enough ( like probably most of us ) Its a 1000 dollar fix and a day or so plus beers.
Not too bad !
Of course this only works for bearings that have not yet failed...
I was dead against 996 and the like, I am starting to warm up to them..

LOL, yeah, I think it's more like you don't know enough to know that you just don't know.
