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.
