Graham Palmer, one of a limited number of quick thinking Intel PR representatives, saved the life of a UK journalist last week at the Palm Springs Intel Development Forum. Gordon Thorn, Labs Manager at VNU Business Publications in the UK, suffered an acute allergic reaction after being bitten by a desert nasty last week. Palmer prevented blocking of Gordon's airways until a 911 paramedic team was able to provide full resuscitation. Gordon has now made a full recovery and told The Register he was very grateful. After recuperating for two additional days in Palm Springs, Gordon was able to return to the UK yesterday. ®
