I never got the impression she was totally denying responsibility.

The theme of the thread, to me, seemed to be "how would/should a server react or manage a situation when a customer has been forgetful?"

Yes, by an absolute definition, she abandoned her leftovers and the server was free to do whatever they wanted in that scenario. They chose to not go out of their way to try and make a bad situation into a good one, and this thread ensued.

If GBG had tried to claim that Mame's owed her $5 for the lost leftovers, then I would agree she was going a little too far.
