Removing the rotor, tune up (????????)

Quick question, i'm doing a tune-up and I can't remove the rotor after the distributor cap. How do I remove it? Is there a bolt/screw to untwist?

It's getting dark, need help fast!!!

bump the ignition a couple times till you see the screw in the rotor.
get a screw drive that fits the screw very well and unscrew it.
if you dont get a screw drive that fits it nicly they it might strip it.
jus apply alot of presure downward on the screw and you will be fine

in addition to /\ this info, i use a flat blade screwdriver and wedge it b/t the rotor screw and the rotor body to break the "weld" that has occurred because of heat and usage. it helps to remove the screw.
