"crackpots" : oh yes of course, then come to our socialist paradise, where the national assembly just voted "chinese" laws for controlling the Net, and maybe as a highranking physician or professional earn 100K€, but as a middle civil servant I earn 30K€, and that is more than the average worker (less than 20K€), and those are the lucky ones, because with the crisis unemployment is exploding (12% right now), and the unemployed after 1 year on the dole, if they don't find a work finish up with a 350€ a month welfare allowance, enough to either pay a rent or buy food, but not both, so I see everyday (not later than 2 hours ago) more and more homeless. Besides there is a chasm in socialist France (yes, this is a socialist, not a free market country) between the very rich and the very poor, at least as much as in America, but hush-hush , the radical/liberal crowd, even here on CD, doesn't want these inconvenient truths to be said, they want to make believe that I have a hidden agenda, that's ridiculous, I'm a fullfledged Parisian, son-grandson-grandgrandson (goes back to the Middle Ages) of an old family here, do you think I'm happy with that situation?
Revolution is again brewing here....

C'est chouette! When I come to France I will invite you to a cafe where we can drink a VSOP cognac with coffee and have a friendly talk.
I was thinking of a Duel Citizenship but backed out being from the USA natural born from perhaps the beginning of the US by decent. I figured US passport is alot better and the EU is so new and to many heads It's better to play it safe. For someone like Johnny Depp it is fine and dandy he has connections. US passport I can travel anywhere in he World. I wasn't going with France tho another country I mean you get the wrong Citizenship and you could loss it all over a hot head and be in big trouble.
of course me being natural born would be better for me then most to get it back plus living here all my life and my mom and dad son ect. they do tell you to think it over before hand and to be careful. And I did think if over.

I have family there and although they love it in France, I think they'd disagree with the quality of life. To each their own.
Still, I wouldn't mind visiting.
This is true i do plan on visiting or thinking of it anyways in the future. It think as America we sometimes take things for granted, I recall when America was first forming and how fights broke out the EU has a long was to go yet. And has a possibility of not lasting due to the fact that they have had separate heads for many years enough so that even I second though it myself and being naural born USA from many generations. But who knows it may stick
