We had a bomb threat in the middle of a chorale concert on Yale's campus. We think that it was meant for a different hall, but there we were, in between movements of some mass, when our business director walks up the aisle, grabs the director by the elbow, and whispers in his ear. He turns to the audience, announces the bomb threat, and asks everyone to leave the building.

Concert picked up again about 40 minutes later, although we were a few members short, including the lead trumpet player. The backup played the exposed trumpet solo quite well, though.

I was also in a public meeting at the state Department of Environmental Protection on October 11, 2001 (so, exactly one month following the Twin Towers). The building was evacuated for a fake anthrax attack (it turned out to be coffee creamer powder in an envelope labled ANTHAX (sic)).

Glad nothing's been real, yet.
