One day,Glenn Furst's mother put oil on the kitchen floor just before the inspector entered their house.Like floor wax,the oil made the floors shiny and helped protect the wood.This time,though,she used a little too much oil. When the inspector extended his hand to greet Glenn's mother, he slipped on the freshly oiled surface.“He came across that floor waving his arms like a young bird attempting its first flight,” Glenn later wrote.After he steadied himself,he shook Glenn's mother's hand,and the inspection continued as though nothing had happened.
