  John Silver - Press Release January 2001   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
Silver has prepared himself for his chosen career is evident both in his well grounded technical competence and in a thoughtful, experimental approach which has allowed him to freely explore both the abstract and figurative terrains while maintaining a fruitful, ongoing dialogue with past and currant art.
Silver has expanded his investigations in his current work to a figurative idiom often generated from a field of abstract forms.
Silver, (who claims to be among other things, a Buddhist), says he arrives at these images as if he were a hunter stalking his prey through the vaults of consciousness.

 Amazon.co.uk: Long John Silver (Panther): Books: Bjorn Larsson,Tom Geddes   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
Rich, old and almost alone, Long John Silver sits in Madagascan exile and broods on the past; both Jim Hawkins and Daniel Defoe tricked and libelled him and for once he is going to put the record straight while there is time.
Silver has been an honest man and ended up shanghaied, and falsely accused of mutiny--if he becomes a monster and the account of what he does to the man who costs him his leg is pretty much emetic, how can his crimes weigh against the slavery and brutality from which supposedly good men profit?
The pirate Long John Silver retired in 1742 and settled on a cliff in Madagascar to write his memoirs, which fell into the hands of the British Admiralty.

 Stereophile: B&W John Bowers Silver Signature loudspeaker
The name gives it away: other than the anodized aluminum tweeter diaphragm, every metal part in the Silver Signature is silver, from the drive-unit voice-coils to the crossover inductors and capacitors, and from the binding posts to the ornamental crosses providing the drive-units with a moderate degree of protection from prying fingers.
The drive-units are both exclusive to the Silver Signature, and were developed with the aid of laser interferometry at B&W's Steyning Research Center, nestling in the shadow of the Sussex Downs.
Twin sets of silver binding posts on the rear panel allow the drive-units to be connected to the remote crossover via a supplied cable with four conductors, each fabricated from two Teflon-insulated, 0.7mm (0.028") silver conductors.

This was the ultimate in integrated amplifiers during the silver era, with the ultimate price tag of $800.

 Long John Silver's - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Long John Silver's is a United States-based fast-food restaurant that specializes in seafood and "fish and chips." It is named after the fictional pirate Long John Silver from the Robert Louis Stevenson book "Treasure Island".
When the company was sold in 1989, the Long John Silver's concept had far outgrown the Jerry's chain.
The restaurant chain was the subject of some controversy in the late 1990s for a commercial in which a police officer decided not to write a ticket to a motorist who gave him a Long John Silver's fish sandwich.

According to the citation, Kerry got the Silver Star for attacking into an ambush and beaching his boat in front of enemy gunners (which was stupid if you're in an aluminum boat).
