I'm biased, but I'll say it looks like him. I'm glad that people were able to find more on him, since I hit a dead end in searching. I never really know you could search for people on myspace, unless you were checking for the guys profile!
So on to his "partner", I would say this Abromowitz guy is our best bet. They have to be close if they are roommates. The "Best Friends" usually have a deeper connection. I'll search for him, maybe in the AEPI site directory even. Who knows, I'll be back with something.
