Because he moved his pawn two squares on the first move, not because he moved it "twice".

Same basic thing.

 Not even the same basic thing. He said he moved his pawn TWICE. 

He moved it ONCE. 

See the difference?

Yeah he didn't have to lose his queen at all.

Well, when your playing someone who makes that many blunders within about ten moves, I don't think you really need en passant.

I did realize the blunder that his queen could have taken, but either way, I learned from it, and won the game.

The 3.d4 variation of the Petroff refuted?

Not really. White has 6.exd6 e.p. Without it, Black would be better, already.
