[edit] White moves 8 and 9

I expanded the commentary on White's options on moves 8 and 9 using the references listed. Burgess suggests that 8.Re1 Bc5 is good for Black as White's f2 is weak. As often happens, MCO-14 and NCO don't recommend the same lines. NCO evaluates 8.Qe2 Ng4 as being in Black's favor, but MCO-14 has it as its main line. If any of these evaluations are flawed we should fix them.
