When I was working at the UN, which was a secondary 9/11 target I'm told, it was most interesting talking to the engineers I was supervising since they are among the folks who were/are sometimes asked by world media "clients" to stay on duty during drills.

There was an evacuation drill while I was there, and when our people asked me what they should do, I told them to get the hell out of the building.

NOW!

I felt kind of sorry for anyone trying to drive up 1st Avenue while those buildings emptied out and everyone crossed the street.
