My recent blog and column about two recent hotel “almost” fire alarm experiences in the middle of the night—at the PRIMA and Bermuda Captive Conferences—brought in a number of comments, both on the blog and in the form of e-mails sent to me. A number of people I've spoken to in the course of business also had similar tales to tell.
In my column (National Underwriter, July 6/13) I mentioned that while these events were no reflection on the associations holding the meetings, the organizations should go over a hotel's emergency response and evacuation plans when booking events.
In response, I received a thoughtful e-mail from Lisa Lopinsky, executive director of the Public Risk Management Association (PRIMA).
