Morning Talker: Professor Overreacts To Overcharge

Am I the only person who thinks this guy was right?  Today, the Fun Morning Show spoke with the ABC 6 News crew about a story out of Brookline.

Harvard Business Professor Ben Edelman ordered $53.35 of food from the Sichuan

Garden. He used their online menu to pick out items, but after checking the receipt he found out the restaurant overcharged him.

Using his Harvard genius, Edelman computed the total amount he was swindled, and discovered a whole $4 difference between the online prices and the actual charges.

The professor then began an e-mail war with the Sichuan Garden to get his money back.

You can check out the entire conflict at Boston.com.

Out of the entire ABC 6 and Fun Morning Show crew, only I agreed with the Harvard professor's stance on the $4. I said he would've done the same thing, if not worse.

We did get a caller with a strong opinion, though.

It's not about the money, it's about the principle of the thing.
