Dan's got most of it, and Chuck added most of the rest. The part I would add is the "spot" is usually considered a three foot wide area, with no depth limitations. So, for example, even though a player is "on the spot", that player can back up 10 feet if they want, as long as they keep at least one foot over the three-foot-wide area. So it's kind of a myth that the player can't move; they can, just within a limited area.

Speaking of the hokey-pokey, with all the sadness and trauma going on in the world at the moment, it is worth reflecting on the death of a very important person, which almost went unnoticed recently.

Larry LaPrise, the man who wrote "The Hokey Pokey," died peacefully at age 93.

The most traumatic part for his family was getting him into the coffin. They put his left leg in. And then the trouble started.
