There's the occasional "I pulled my valve springs" post but, personally, I think that's nuts. There are guys that fog the cylinders too. Again, nuts. Starting the car up for just little turns of the engine does more harm than good... and I think turning it by hand is wasted effort. BTW, that car bag with fresh desiccant in it will keep your car bone dry even if you're storing her in the rain forest. Do not underestimate its effectiveness.
