I have personally transcribed the direct quotes below to help us understand the rationale behind this radical shift.
********************************************
-- "Hinge action is the result of angular motion on an inclined plane."
-- "The hinge action is not a motion of the hands. It's a paddle[wheel] motion of the pivot and the arm swing, and it is the result of an angular motion...a circular motion...and it takes place on an inclined plane."
-- "Hinge action is not a wrist motion. It is an arm and pivot motion. The hand only is positioned [vertical to one of the three associated planes] and then takes on its arm and body rotating motion."
-- "The hinge action is not a hand motion, a hand action, or a hand anything except position. It is the position that has been set up to be vertical to one of the three basic planes."
-- "The thing is...the pivot and the arm motion produce the hinge action. It is not a hand motion except in the position in which you are maintaining it...vertical to an associated plane."

Sorry for this obvious ( to some) but after some glases of fine Rioja I have to ask:
They should be in Zone 2?
