    The floor in this one reminds me of one just like it up at the local college that I and another gent were suppose to buff, when I worked there many moons ago. Some guy was trying to sell a new buffing technique, and he saturated the floor with water(!!)

    Once it dried the wood had buckled and the whole floor had to be replaced (you can imagine how expensive that was!)

    That was actually a portable dance floor taped down. And, it doesn't show very well, but it was actually pretty small. As I showed with TriolaMJ, there was ceilidh dancing with so many on the floor that it all looked like a crowd squeezing into and out of a Manhattan subway doorway.
