Is a site about mental health, but I don't know what "manic miner" is
in this context. I wonder if it is a well-known condition?""
I did a little research into the site. Check this out:
http://www.biologicalunhappiness.com/mental_health/Mfiles.htm
Seems "Manic Miner" isn't anything in this case. Whatever idiot put
the site together seems to have slung together an endless list of
pages telling you that their site is the leading expert in [insert
condition here]. They seem to have filled in every possible search
engine query that relates to mental health issues, no matter how off
the mark (Manic Monday, Manic Street Preachers and "mental as
anything" are on that page alone). Given the dire cover art for the
book this site is promoting, I'd like to think it's a joke. It's
extensive enough to be serious though
Scurrying hurriedly back on topic to stop this post being deleted,
cheers for the emulator Ewgf :) I'll not be able to check it out in
the very near future though, because it turns out I have a university
essay that has to be handed in a week earlier than I thought :( But
when I can, I shall report back on a) whether it works, and b) the
quality of JSW II Acorn (if possible)
