[106] "Dangerous Rapids": The two Earth-Air-Fire combinations in
Row 1 are just screaming out for items in the Air-cells! (ditto
re. "The Underground River" [105]). Seeing as you've used up all
256 items, I suggest that you move the item in this room into one
of said Air-cells.

I am sorry I'm not entirely sure which Air-cells you mean. Could
you please specify where the items should be placed with numbers,
or perhaps insert the items into the appropriate places
(recovering them from somewhere else, doesn't matter where from)
and send me the game file or screenshots? Could you do it for both
rooms in question, please? (insert as many items as you think
proper, I will recover them from somewhere else)

I am suggesting items in the cells marked by '$' in the diagrams
below:
[106] "Dangerous Rapids": (1,10) and (1,28)
[105] "The Underground River": (2,29)

________Dangerous Rapids________ _____The Underground River______

It may look unbelievable, but if you jump left from the correct
places under the Fire-cells, you can take these items!

This is one of my favourite quirky features in JSW - I called it
the "WIN combination" in the days when I called Earth-cells
"wall-blocks" and Fire-cells "static nasties".
