[Obit] RIP Dave Alway

We lost Dave Alway.

Goodnight, tnatj. I'll always remember that quiet, gentle guy sitting in a corner of reception at GAFilk, buttons and button materials laid out in front of him, and always happy to distribute them or explain how they were made to anyone who passed by and lingered, but never pushed to make himself heard. Because you never needed to. Your last days were happy ones, and that's all that matters.

The full Stargate: Atlantis outfit

So here it is: the full Stargate: Atlantis tactical outfit, with the tac vest and the drop-down holster. It's surprisingly comfortable, but at the same time, given the unseasonably warm Georgia weather we had over the weekend and being indoors, it got a bit wet beneath.

The tac vest came with a spring-loaded BB MP40, but I didn't want to bring that down into the main convention area and make people nervous, so I'm not even carrying anything in the holster.

Later on, I'll have pictures of me without the tac vest and just the drop-down.
