That makes me ill.
I've heard the "Fire" thing, too, and have always thought it incredibly unfortunate. Personally, I'd be less likely to run towards a fire call than a call for help. I'd help in either situation (and have - gee, it was real fun when the Safeway propane tanks were spouting fire), but the difference between handling the two situations is so vast.
