Emergency, if so Inclined

Yesterday at 11:30, a voice rang throughout our building.

"We have a situation on the 17th floor. Floors four, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, sixteen, eighteen and nineteen, you may evacuate the building at this time."

Skipping five and twelve are actually reasonable, seeing that our building has no floor five or twelve (I think they're used for maintenance and hvac). But "you may evacuate"?

Talk about non-committal.

Perhaps floors five and twelve are in another universe where there can be no situation.
