David P. Clemens, a software developer and chief architect at Cambridge-based Ascent Technology, told The Crimson he was on the fifth floor when the fire alarms went off. The office lights flickered, and he heard a rumble just as the alarms began to ring, he said. When he and about 100 other workers tried to escape through the stairwells, he said, they found them crowded with thick smoke...
