I am writing a novel… what do you think about it?

I am planning writing a novel about my adventures and my life on the web. This includes penpals, my experiences on forums and newsgroups, people I’ve met there and my thoughts on them… the debates on psychoanalysis I have started or/ and participated in…

Usenet Newsgroup downloads HELP?

Ok, i downloaded an XBOX 360 game from usenet. When it was done downloading im missing some files. I used QuickPAR to fix them, but it couldnt get the missing files. How can i recover those missing files without redownloading the whole thing? Its only like 6 files and I guess i didnt get the PAR files for them either.
