Have to say I agree to a point. I have too many hobbies (there, I said it!). But I enjoy them all. If I dropped one to focus more time on the others, I'd miss the one I dropped fairly quickly.

That's good, because it should, actually. The fact that Gmail couldn't save a draft of the message means an unencrypted version of your email could not be saved to Google's servers.

I remember when a relative got one, we all were thrilled, and then many of us started taking water from the tap again because it somehow tweaked the flavor and made it even worse. That was particularly weird water to start with.
