> What would you have done?

a) I'm in favour of drills.

b) I'm in favour of a policy of "no exceptions, do as if real" on drills.

c) I'm in favour of (almost) no exceptions on policy.

I would have left.

But, yeah, it would have been an interesting experiment in social engineering 
to 
see if you could trip the machine.

(I've had my lectures and seminars interrupted by fire drills and alarms 
numerous 
times.  It makes for interesting examples in physical security.  Such as the 
building 
where the fire alarm was almost inaudible in the training room, but literally 
headache-inducing in the exit stairwell.  Or the buidling where we evacuated to 
a 
most unsafe area [fourth floor parking lot within the building], and then had 
to go 
back through a ridiculous security process, exacerbated by the fact that 
everything, 
including laptops that had been checked in in the morning, had been left in the 
training room.  Took more than an hour to restart that course.)
