I have a similar problem with my dining room light fixture, which uses 
the high-intensity bulbs.  The only way to rotate them is with my 
thumbs.  The real problem is that the socket gets loose, and just 
rotates with the bulb.  I have taken most of them apart and re-tightened 
them, but hard to get at, especially when standing on a short ladder.
