Default Grease what...?

Just wondering something. I read about greasing multiple items in the transmission if you had a sticky feeling in the clutch. I decided to take a look at my tranny and found that my ball on my slave cylinder was completely dry of grease. I greased it and the pivot point on the fork in the transmission and now my transmission feels great, but my question is, should I try to get some more grease on my throw out bearing? I can get to it with a long screwdriver, but should I put a little on it when the fork catches it?

THANKS

Put a little bit in the TO groove where the fork's fingers are.
And.. while you're there, get a piece of wire and put a blob of grease behind the TO, on the sleeve it slides on (as per Billman's posts).

It will fix a sticky clutch, but best is to fill the groove of the TO with grease while installing the clutch, you can't get to it afterwards
