Yep. It's a very short interview, and not all that interesting. If you haven't
seen them, you'd be better off looking for two in-depth interviews with
Gibson published in the fanzine SCIENCE FICTION EYE #1.

Although I can't prove it, I suspect the author of the article on cyberpunk
by the obviously pseudonymous "Lou Stathis  ("Status"???) is Gibson himself. 

The high point (no pun intended :-)) of the issue is the excerpt from Gibson's
new novel (scheduled from Bantam in 1988), "Mona Lisa Overdrive."
