Although not quite as simple as school’s fire drill, having a crisis plan serves the same purpose: to keep everyone in the company (including its reputation) safe. The "fire drill" idea seems like it would help many people and companies. Not everyone agrees with this… before it hits the fan, that is. Fire drills are important.

Frankly, it seems absolutely ridiculous to me that companies are paying $3 million for the chance to get one ad – ONE – aired.
