No wonder golfers are so confused!
The Pivot -- Homer Kelley's "massive rotor" -- and its six Components constitute fully 25 percent of the 24 identified in The Golfing Machine. Further, those six Components and their functions are grouped as Zone #1 (of three). The truth is that Homer felt that mastery of the Pivot was of paramount importance.

So, it really is quite sad when Mr. Kelley is characterized on the site mentioned as not understanding the Pivot, the rotational force it generates, the alignments it must produce and those it must maintain. Further, it is a shame to read through the posts and see the many gross misunderstandings, misstatements and mischaracterizations, all presented as fact.

But, it is what is, and it ain't my job to provide rebuttal. So, I recommend readers of all golf websites choose those concepts and procedures that work best for them (and, in the case of professionals, for their students), and leave the rest alone.

In the end, that's really all that counts.
