    • Is Next Step owned by Shane Wilkins, or is it just coincidence that there is another tech shop in New York owned by a Shane?

    It's Shane Wilkins. Hey, when your key clientele are supervillains, you move around a lot and change store names. And the name on the lease or the incorporation papers isn't Shane Wilkins either; it's some guy who died in a methadone clinic three years ago, and his death was never reported. Hey, Diplomatic Immunity only covers so much.

    Yep, because they can still kick you out. Wait, can they kick them out? I mean the Wilkins' family is from the US, and well are they still US Citizens? Or did they all get Karedonian Citizenship? I really doubt the US would recognize dual US-Karedonian Citizenship.

    • In most case of dual citizenship, the government is never notified. So, people keep (say) leaving the U.S. with their U.S. passport and entering Europe with their Italian passport.

    Worse yet, there is precedent (although not commonly used over the last century, it is still there) for a nation to name non-citizens as their ambassadors. So, it's entirely possible that even Uncle Ralph, who is the Karedonian Ambassador to the U.N., officially retains his American citizenship.

    Well... would you? I mean, they're not a very good credit risk, and they certainly don't add any prestige to the place.

    And as I passed through the security scanner, just inside the front doors, the Elderly Urban Indian greeted me and welcomed me to TechMart... Oh well... it's no Next Step but they'd have the bargain 'ware I was looking for and scraping myself off the bottom of the tech heap was gonna take me time and effort.
