here's an example of Trojan Bishop :) I played against crafty some years ago :

[Event "ICS unrated blitz match"]
[Site "chessclub.com"]
[Date "1999.10.24"]
[Round "-"]
[White "guest1040"]
[Black "EggSalad"]
[Result "*"]
[WhiteElo "0"]
[BlackElo "2996"]
[TimeControl "300"]

1. e4 c5 2. Nf3 d6 3. d4 cxd4 4. Nxd4 Nf6 5. Nc3 a6 6. Bg5 e6 7. f4 Nc6 8.
g4 Be7 9. Qd2 O-O 10. h4 Nxd4 11. Qxd4 h6 12. Be2 hxg5 13. hxg5 Ne8 14. Qf2
Bxg5 *

h4 ! and crafty blundered ...
