I just received an e-mail from an admin staff in my office.  On october 4th the downtown area wil be conducting a gian fire drill.  60 buldings with over 30,000 employees will be evacuating their buildings at the same time as if it is a real emergency.

How many broken legs are predicted?

Oooh, the company I work for has a building right Central & Washington. Good thing I'll be on a plane to Hawaii that day.

Ohhhh man, wish I had one of those Artsy-Fartsy Gourmet Coffee Carts down there during that --- I'd make a fortune!

A bagel with sprouts, anyone?

I can't imagine that either experience would be any more pleasant than the other.

Shit - Does it say which buildings or which streets.  Maybe I will call in sick that day.  I am in no hurry to take 23 flights of stairs with a bunch of office douches.

As usual the admin staff got a little overzealous with their story.

It turns out its 50 offices and 30,000 employees across Phoenix.  Here is a list of just some of the buildings.  It hasnt been updated since June so I am sure there are more now.
