I think the myspace link should be removed - as far as i can tell it has nothing to do with the company.

[edit] Usage

What's with the "it is improper to use the expression" line at the bottom? It doesn't describe why it's improper. Removed, unless someone wants to add in why it was improper. Zchris87v 06:52, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

Hmm, I'm fairly sure that the reason it was like that was because Captain Morgan specifically was a sailor, and it is insulting to refer to a sailor as a pilot or driver, I suppose. Though I suppose the point is moot not :) AC 14:48, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Sugar content?

I think it is not necessary to mention about Henry Morgan any more in this article, since he has no real relationship with the rum.

To say, only the following in that section is relevant and reliable:

In 1944, the Seagram Company started producing rum under the name Captain Morgan Rum Company.

In 1983, Captain Morgan Original Spiced rum was introduced to the United States.

Captain Morgan is now produced by The Diageo Corporation.

If no opinion is raised in the following week I would remove the entire section in the exception of the above lines. --Samuel Curtis^{Shinichian-Hirokian}-- _{TALK·CONTRIBS} 13:48, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
