Oddly enough, my daughter and I were talking about
this last night. We both said we couldn't understand
why people would wait to be told that they did indeed
have to leave the building. Then we realised that both
of us had been in similar situations and not left the
buildings in question. We seemed to have justified our
staying by thinking that we were on the lower floors
of building and could quite easily get out if
necessary. It does make you stop and think.
