The keeper decided she might be useful as a greeter at the Family Mass last night. so, just as they were completing their orientation, the fire alarm went off. It was 80 minutes before Mass would start but the church was already starting to fill up. Everyone had to evacuate. Some people refused to leave because they would lose their seats. Others went outside without their coats because they wanted to use their coats to save their seats.
It was a false alarm, but an interesting study in human nature, for sure.
The keeper kept her coat but her feet were frozen until long after.
