"Well, I can't imagine what would happen to a gmail account... could be a server error or a GF may have made him close it. Who knows."

I doubt a server error - I tried a couple of different times throughout the day.

A GF making him close it is a definite possibility I considered - although I have watched carefully for clues of such and must say, I never saw any. Still, it would be a high-probability event I guess.

You're such a good friend, OT- I will watch for your email smile I have actually sent a couple of guys to my girlfriends, that I saw online and thought would be a match.
