   In 1961 I tried to pay for a hamburger at a counter in the Port 
   Authority in Manhattan with a silver dollar.  The waitress refused
   to take it.  She called her manager, he refused to take it.  He
   called his manager who immediately offered me $20 for the thing.
   The guy actually laughed when I told him that his waitress had
   just cost him $19, as he coulda had it for $1.00 if she had a
   brain.
