Did you guys read the Rachel Luttrel interivew on GW main page? It had a little bit about DH that kind of shocked me (poor David!) when they were discussing conventions and fans.
Oh... my! That was just a bit too over zealous. Poor David indeed. Maybe the Flanigan/Sheppard thunkers have the right idea... we should get David some bodyguards. Any volunteers?

When I hear about that sort of thing, I'm almost ashamed of being a fan because it makes us seem so...insane.
I don't know if it was because I'm generally a shy person or it was my first convention and therefore not aware of what was acceptible behavior... but I was surprised by the familiarity with which the guests were treated by the the con-goers. Nothing nearly as dramatic as a rogue smoocher, but just little things like a fairly personal question (can't remember what it was or to whom it was addressed) and some other things I can't remember at the moment. Even if I do get a few more conventions under my belt, I still don't think I could be that familiar with the guests... I'm doomed to a lifetime of inane stuttering and mumbling when confronted with these guys.

Reason: added commentary
I hope that doesn't put him off doing conventions. I know of some actors who get shell shocked because of an experience like that.
And I sincerely hope that if David knows about his Thunk thread (and how could he not with the years that the SG1 actors have known about this site) that he takes it all in the spirit it's intended. Just some fun in our admiration of the person and his work.
Even if David didn't have a girlfriend in real life, that's still no way to treat anyone, actor or otherwise. That's just rude.
Grr, I'm getting a little angry now. If that one selfish person ruined it for the rest of us...

David looking a little put out with those 2 beautiful women (also looking oh, so domestic with those rubber gloves he has on for washing the dishes). Hey, there's another beer there on the counter!

And is he trying to shake or crush that beer can? Because if he's trying to crush it he's not doing a very good job...
He's trying to crush it. Joe's brother just arrived at the front door and David tosses him a beer. Joe's brother is pretty big and he swigs down the beer and crushes the can iwth one hand. David, having just awoken from a drunken slumber, is having a little harder time with his beer can.
