@angusm Thirty-five years ago I had to spend six weeks out of town on a business trip. As it happened, I could stay with my dad, so the company incurred no hotel expenses (comparable expenses today for that city are $375-$400/night, as I found on a shorter trip a few weeks ago). But I DID have a fine Cajun meal, accompanied by three beers, every single night. I ate at the bar, so the bartenders and the owner got to know me very well. @DocBohn @cstross
