Because I forgot to post cheque to Colin till early this week, I didn't 
receive SAM Revival 4 till just now. Flicking through, I happened to an 
article called "Manic Miner Walkthrough - Part 2". Half way down there's the 
title of "The Sugar Factory" (or really, it's "Eugene's Lair").

C'mon, you should know the story behind behind "Eugene's Lair"?!

It was in a couple of magazines, at least - Sinclair User / Your Spectrum / 
Your Sinclair (I know, I'm showing my age).

Quickly googling, I found this these:

"Probably the most famous level of Manic Miner is 'Eugene's Lair', a level 
named after fellow Bug-Byte programmer Eugene Evans, who had told Matthew 
Smith that he didn't think Manic Miner would work." 

(Eugene Evans went to become their star programmer in Imagine)

Tsk, Tsk - I thought everyone of about Eugene! :-)
