       Mate in 3 [ a curiosity ]   Author unknown [at least to me]
       [D]4k3/8/4K3/4R3/8/8/8/8 w
       It seems there are 28 variants that lead to a mate in 3,
       although I am not entirely sure of that,I don't trust my

       position can do the trick,for instance:1.Re1 Kd8 2.Rc1 Ke8 3.Rc8#  JAFM
