Well, I'm sure that's a great comfort for the families of the 2,000-odd US servicemen and women who, based on the casualty rate to date, will die between now and when he moseys off to establish the *snigger* George W. Bush *guffaw* Presidential Library!

You mean the White House Presidential bookshop annex. Stacked with get-rich-quick tomes and the memoire collection "How I Did It", foreword by El profesor Fronkonsteen.

Pilkington's Variation is still under review by the Rules Committee. Personally I prefer to go by the Vilnius Gambit, as it leads to prolonged and more interesting gameplay. Otherwise, the invoking of spoon at the point you did just leads to an effective stalemate in Earl's Court, and where's the fun in that?
