I don't think this is true, although it certainly resembles some 
similar mis-info that I used to read posted on the bicycle 
newsgroups.

There is nothing in Lubriplate lithium grease or any other grease 
that will react with magnesium, or almost anything else you are 
likely to want to lubricate.  The lithium is in the form of a "soap" 
(the chemical term) and is quite inert.  In other words, it has 
already reacted with something else and is now quite tightly bound up 
and well behaved.
