Just more anecdotal stories on Captain Morgan. I have a shirt-tail relative who worked in a senior position with a (then) big eight accounting firm. This was some years ago, back when accountants were deemed trustworthy and the profession was honorable. His work brought him into contact with Applied Materials (but not as their auditor...something tangential). He worked for several months on some due dilligence and verification of company financials. He told me some time later (around early 2000, as I recall) that in his twenty-five years of public accounting experience he had never been more impressed with the quality and inherent integrity of a management team than what he had seen at Applied Materials. This compliment was paid for no particular reason, just sitting around talking about various things,but it has stayed with me and has been a source of some comfort in these "unsettled" times.
