Fire and Fire Escapes, Fire drill, Fire Alarm

 We are more security conscious nowadays. Does that mean we are safer?

Organizers of events should check fire exits, and fire extinguishers. And dates on fire extinguishers. And fire alarms.

It is good for public buildings to have fire alarm tests and evacuation rehearsals.

Agree on an assembly point. You don't want parents or the fire brigade running into the fire to rescue children who are already outside. Or visitors who go home.
