KDE and GNOME advocates will not be admitted. :)

Seriously, though, for those planning to bring their own firearms be
advised:

1. To carry a pistol in GA (concealed or in the open) requires a permit.
2. It is illegal to bring a pistol to a Public Gathering. I will assume
that the show counts as such. Irregardless....
3. Anyone bringing any firearms to the show will escorted out, and
possibly arrested. This is Show and convention center policy.
4. Bringing a pistol on MARTA (our subway) is illegal.

See number 3. Leave it in your room people...

This is important: Shoot first, drink second. This is a problem for a lot
of the locals down here, so I wanted to make that clear. :).

Sorry to sound like an A**hole, but I don't want to see anyone get into
trouble. Be responsible.
