Speedo cable lube?

SPEEDOMETER CABLE LUBRICATION:
Some time ago (maybe last year?) there was some discussion here regarding
speedo cable lubrication.  Was there a concensus on the best method and 
lubricant?  Twenty years ago I recall being sold graphite for this
purpose.  Is this still recommended?

Thanks - Lee
