  gmail outage - am I alone out there?

I'm now about 34 hours into my first big gmail outage. Everytime I try to load gmail with either of my accounts it gets as far as "loading" and stops. The html for it dumps the javascript(s), and then a /html header, and nothing in-between.

Googling for "gmail outage" doesn't show anything, so I figure it's just me. But I've tried firefox & mozilla on two different machines without any luck so far. Am I truly alone and cut off from the universe?

I fired off an email to support@gmail.com - it was sent back with something along the lines of "sorry, there are no humans here, check the faq to see if it answers your problem".

No answers in the faq.

It's amazing how addicted to email I am, and how much time it sucks up. I got a lot more done this weekend around the house than I have in weeks!

I'll be irritated enough and inspired enough to re-install my own email server if this lasts another day, though.

Gmail is down again. And it is a big problem, because my deadline is looming, and the file and info is on gmail. Grrrrr.
