I was talking to a relative recently that hadn't heard of slugging before, and she thought it was an odd term. I have lived in DC for over 30 years, so I know slugging has existed for that long, but any idea on how the term came to life?

If you go to the homepage of this website, near the bottom, there is a link "See About Slugging" that gives a nice history and explanation of the term.
