Speaking of, you should come visit us in the 'burgh.
There's an article on the staging of Sampsonia way here: http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/08317/927167-53.stm
Oh, the SCA. My parents often regale my siblings and me with stories of their SCA days in the 'burgh. They're like the proto-LARPers.
That is wonderful. I am of the opinion that Google Street view is an enormously valuable document of social history. The most significant since the Domesday Book and this snippet of social history snapped for all time just proves this. This is a wonderful wonderful thing and will be so fantastic for future generations to discover
