Two questions:

1. Who is Val d'Isere? I have the game but never knew who it was named for, as far as being of any importance.

2. Does anyone know why the embedded videos on this site only display as a full green screen whenever I play them through the RVG link. If I select to play them directly through youtube, they play fine, allowing me to see the actual video and not a green screen. I am using Firefox browser.

1. This reminds me of a very funny story, when I was younger our next door neighbour bought Val D'Isere and my brother asked him if he knew who "he" was. Our neighbour John replied "yes of course he is a brilliant skier, I have watched him loads of times". Val D'Isere is a skiing resort in France - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Val-d'Is%C3%A8re

2. I use Google Chrome and have never had a problem.

I like that Mogul Maniac by Amiga because of the first-person perspective of the game.  Not a frequent thing for this type of retro game.
