Well, the CBT tape was. We owe a debt of gratitude to Arnie and to
CBT.

Should have walked out without paying[1]; $2 bills are legal tender,
and they have no further claim once they refuse payment. I would have
walked out and then written a letter explaining why I wasn't coming
back; that's no way to treat a customer.

[1] If the service was good, I might have given the whole thing to the
    waiter and told him that if the cashier didn't want it he could
    consider the whole thing an addition to his tip.
