There's a long thread about a computer glitch (presumably) allowing folks to book Hilton at a rate of zero dollars. Pardon me for being a lamb, but I can't imagine the hotel actually honoring the rate!

I can see myself waltzing up to the desk, showing them my "$0.00" rate confirmation, and having the clerk quietly reach down under the counter and pulling out the "We take no responsibility for computer errors" sign. When I persist, she'll reach down again and push the button that summons the Brute Squad, and I'll find myself and my baggage at curbside, the confirmation fluttering in the wind.

Do they REALLY honor these mistakes? Why?
