Haven't seen any interviews with him in the past and I was very surprised at his easy manner... Mind you, Parky's never going to really upset anyone so he was in safe hands... :)

All previous citizenships are completely forgotten once you become a USC.

Albert Einstein is always referred to as an American, and was at no.14 in the Greatest 100 Americans list. :rolleyes:

Brits only.. and once you move over to the Dark Side, and take Citizenship of a 'foreign' land you're banned. :)

What about if you move back...and no longer an expat?

We'd have to have a splinter site, for British Repats.
