<br>
Of course, people can turn doorknobs in different ways. So there may <br>
be exceptions to this depending on one's anatomy...<br>
<br>
But I personally write turning a doorknob as a Rotisserie Movement, <br>
because even though the wrist may be flexed because the hand is <br>
holding the doorknob, the movement is not from the wrist joint (when <br>
I do it anyway). The wrist joint when I do it, is locked in its <br>
position, and the wrist joint itself remains solid, while the <br>
Rotisserie Movement occurs...<br>
<br>
So if the Rotisserie pole is bent at the end, it is still a solid <br>
pole, because the wrist is locked. The whole arm-wrist-hand as a <br>
unit, rotates to turn the doorknob...<br>
