Hmmm.... I wonder how many times the issue of splitting bills has been
discussed here and in other threads. If I am out with friends I prefer to just
split the bill. If I am in a group of acquaintances or co-workers, I want
separate checks. If that is not possible, I calculate what I owe, including
tax and tip.
