> About the only thing I *really* regret losing I didn't really "lose". It was saved on a disk that got corrupted. That was the unfinished third installment in my "trilogy of short stories" that I wrote around 10th grade or so. The original story in that sequence was eventually expanded into my first novel (which sucked only slightly less than the original short story)

I hate disk failures as well. There's a short story I collaborated on many moons ago (it was done in style similar to a RinkStory) on an online service that doesn't exist anymore. I had a copy of it on a hard drive and GAK there it went, scattered like so many ones and zeroes.
