Google Accounts and 2-Step Verification

Hi All,

Is anyone else experiencing trouble with Google's 2-Step Verification?

I've got two Gmail based accounts. The first is personal throwaway and
uses Google Authenticator, and the second is for OWASP, is a business
account, and uses SMS messages. As soon as I log into one account, I
am logged out of the other account. Previously, I was allowed to log
into both concurrently.

Google does not appear to allow me to use the same Google
Authenticator for both accounts. I can't find information on how to do
it in their help area, and no one answers questions posted to their
help area (there are lots of 'me too', however).

Does anyone know how to stay logged into both accounts? Does anyone
know how to use Google Authenticator for both accounts? Does anyone
know why its impossible to get help from Google on the business
account that cost real money?

Jeff
