Agreed. I would never completely dismiss 'authorities' in a disaster. I might view them a bit dimly if they seemed to be ill-informed or panicky. Nor would I pass on the $1 rum and coke -- perish the thought! Nor would I dismiss the Elvis impersonator. Making a living as such surely encourages the development of survival reflexes (polyester notwithstanding).

For one thing, the author fails to mention WHY people are told not to use the elevators in the event of a fire.


No arguments here, but we were taught that as youngsters. I was, anyway. Both in elementary school and in the cub scouts.
