Tent Sliding Confirmation

I can confirm tent sliding occurred pre-Reunions in 1983. But until I read Mark’s great article, I had no idea I was part of such a tiny piece of Princeton trivia. I truly believed that this had been done for generations. As for safety and pounds per square foot, we relied on the Roman method of testing: If somebody did it before and it didn’t fall down, you can keep doing it. Apparently that was a flawed assumption.
