Hello all,
I have a simple but effective first move.  Doctor Z has his scalpel  ready. 
 My solution:
1. g4+ (Pawn thrust checks king.) Kg6 (king's only escape square)
2. Qe8+ (seeking a positional advantage) Kh6 (escape square)
3. Qh5++ (Queen supported by pawn.)
 
2. -Kg5 (only other escape square)
3. Qh5++ (Queen supported by pawn. Knight covers f4.)
Black boxed in its king with its own pawns.  In other words, black  gave 
white the rope by which to hang the king.
Edward
