This happened to me by mistake - my ISP disconnected in the middle of the game!!  I was
in hell going for Diablo!!!  Does this mean that I can cancel my connection and still
play the game?  

I got a connection after about 5 min of trying (busy signals) and then noticed that the
game had continued to play and I was lying dead on the floor.   Luckily I had read
somewhere that if you restart in town you have a chance to get your stuff back.  I tried
it and it worked!   I thought this was a freak occurrence - if it is not then I would
like to be able to disconnect (my provider is not happy about the number of hours I am 
online)   :)  

Thanks,
