Locked out of gmail - DiscussWorldIssues - Socio-Economic Religion and Political Uncensored Debate

So it started with an authentication error on my nexus one. I then try to log into gmail and they want my cell phone number to send me an SMS or automated call to confirm it's me. Why is the other email address I provided incase I forgot my password not good enough? And how does providing my cell number confirm I am who I say I am anyway?

What if I'm the dude that hacked the account?

Twats.
