Including me.

If I wasn't broke, I'd probably move to the UK. I can theoretically qualify for citizenship there. (My father was born there. His family emigrated to the US when he was 2 years old, and he didn't become a naturalized US citizen until he was almost 60.) But i just don't have the wherewithal to make a trans Atlantic move.
