I tend to get freaked out by sever weather, so maybe it's just me, but I think we saw a real lack of emergency planning/reaction and had the worst come to pass that lack of planning could have been a major disaster for FIRST as a whole...

If we can't handle entering the dome in a non-emergency, how would we evacuate in a real one?

Ultimately, I would say that trying to evacuate a group of 20000 people under a major time crunch would be way less safe than leaving them in the dome, which is likely built to building codes meant for this kind of a situation.
