	1.e4 c5 (e6 2.b3 c5 3.Nf3) 2.Nf3 e6 3.b3 is not a main line, but it is not uncommon either.

	The book had the effect good books usually have: it made the stupids more stupid, the intelligent more intelligent and the other thousands of readers remained unchanged. GC Lichtenberg

	So far the moves I have considered are: 2. ...e5 - this closes off the fianchetto, but I'm not sure if wasting a tempo is worth it. 2. ...c5 - some sort of sicilian, may be good for black since this doesn't look like a mainline sicilian. 2. ...Nf6 - invites 3. e5 and black is probably OK in the resulting position, but I'm not familiar with it. Does anyone have any ideas for black after 2. b3? Thanks.
