Now I need to wait for a few hours while I contemplate the next move - as 
I'm in the office and as I don't live there, my knowledge of the maps 
isn't as comprehensive as yours.

However I seem to recall that according to rule 19f, the degenerate prism 
rule can't be invoked during the second full week of any month except 
September, nor on alternating Tuesdays (however that would be even-
numbered Tuesdays, so on that score, you'd be OK if it weren't the second 
full week of the month).

That said, though, you can make the move without invoking the degenerate 
prism rule.  You just don't get the bonus.

Jim
