During the IRA bombing campaigns in London in the early 70s, incendiary devices were regularly placed in the big department stores. Every night staff would search rails etc and then the bomb squad would deal with them - its just nothing was publicised unless they went off. I was in Harrods when they evacuated the whole store in under 6 minutes - amazing (esp the poor old dowagers having their hair done - standing outside with lovely staff reassuring them). We just got used to it.
What colour car do you have or did you used to drive?
Is it rude to not finish a book club choice that was selected by someone else?
