One of the strongest memories that many of us have about Intersection is that John Brunner died whilst attending; a very sad event not just for the many British (and other) fans who had fond memories of him as a fan and a friend as well as a writer, but also for the SF community in general. I remember that a number of the speakers at the awards ceremony paid tribute to John and to his writing.
