I was going to edit the Wiki with the Pina Colada info from this article (in 
my own words of course, paraphrasing is a wonderful thing)
http://www.cruisemates.com/articles/humop/pinacoloda.cfm

but then thought I'd throw it open to the Webtenders for your opinions. Is 
this 'the' story, or are there other histories that have a different spin? I 
did a quick search for it in the forums, came up with a post from back in 2001 
by Dom.
[Dom Costa] Re: Pina Colada History Claim in  Old San Juan

Dale mentions in TCotC that Ramon Marrera invented the drink in 1957, funnily 
enough in the same Caribe Hilton as Mr. Garcia.

Opinons?
