Are there any "for Dummies" tutorials for things like vrotate? I have seen
the sample scenes but I get a brain cramp from them.

I need something like:

See Vrotate.
See Vrotate move Sphere.
Happy Sphere!
Vrotate moves Sphere from Point A to Point B.
Sphere is very happy!
Oh! Here comes Mr. Vnormalize!
What will he do?

        : and builds from there...

VRotate is the exact same as the rotate command, except that you apply rotate
to objects and vrotate to vectors. I'll come up with something in a couple of
days. I'll try to be as comprehensive as possible.

And I apologize if this gets posted more than once
