Jun-06-12    GrahamClayton: Is this the same Peter Gilruth who is now living in Kenya, and who won the Kenyan championship in 2007? http://kenyanchessblog.blogspot.com... Jun-06-12    Phony Benoni: It's probably the same person. I remember a Peter Gilruth from Illinois, who played in a couple of Michigan tournaments in the 1980s-90s with a rating of around 2300. Don't recognize the guy in the picture, but I'm very bad with faces. Maybe some of our Illinois Veterans know for sure. (<FSR>, do you hear me?> Here's a more recent photo: http://kenyanchessblog.blogspot.com/ Jun-06-12    FSR: Back in the 70s, I read of Peter Gilruth, and played over some of his games from the Illinois Chess Bulletin. Unfortunately, however, I never met the man, so I can't tell you what he looked/looks like.
