Clearly not always the case - I hesitate to cite 9/11; a lot of good 
people died that day, and not all of them were running *out* of the 
buildings.

It seems to me that it's about being able to do an accurate risk 
assessment and weigh the options very very quickly and make a decision - 
as well as being willing to change the decision when other factors become 
apparent that were not part of the initial risk assessment.
