   Given the poor job Google does I am currently indexing the groups I   
   read. I realize that the articles you want to link to are old and not in   
   my database, but perhaps I could add them?   
      
   That way, you would have links that look like this:   
      
       http://usenet.sandman.net/reader/index/read?id=100127   
      
   But then again, that points to a site that contains stuff that have   
   nothing to do with Tolkien, so maybe that's a bad idea.
