I am rating(answering) the comment about diagram #3 on 2005-10-11 saying
the King should take the Bishop, because 2 Knights & a King can not mate
a
King. That is not true, 2Knights & a King CAN mate a King....

White King is in 1A, one Black Knight is in 3A, the other Black Knight is
in 2C, the Black King is in 3B. B.Knight in 2C has W.King in check.
B.Knight in 3A covers 1B, B.King covers 2A & 2B...Mate.
