Well, I'll admit that it'd been a while since I'd read the Wave Convy stories, so my miss-remembering about the Holodecks (given WC and his host were both virtual, they had clipping enabled and thus the appearence of solidity) is probably to be expected.
However, the Jason is playing with force fields as well as regular holotech. http://www.fenspace.net/index.php5?titl ... vitational]2nd Phobos Annual Part 1 has this:

Quote:Even as the claymore bomb exploded in a horrendous mess of strings in my direction, Kinto'un was already moving backward as fast as the AIs could drive it. Still, I'd been too close to avoid it entirely. I wound up on the opposite side of a gigantic tangle of silly string, my left arm caught up in it. "Blast it, Noah! I'm getting to HATE bombs. Somebody managed to tag me with a bloody Kawaii grenade earlier. I still reek of the thing...and it seems to make women view me as adorable. As in 'I will hug him and squeeze him and call him George!' adorable. I've been running from overgrown Elmyras for the last hour." Noah grinned at that. Unforunately, Leda was starting to get that same look in her eyes. Hrm. "Chakra scalpel...." A glowing green blade extended from my fingertips and I cut my arm free.The 'Chakra scalple' could be both (the previous quote I used shows both holotech and force field tech), AND The Jason gets out what appears to be a copy of a green lantern ring at the end of the Phobos story. This is 4-ish years before your holotech option which would most likely be a single emiter system.
