You should provide the Range header (and probably If-Range too) in the  
request.http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec14.html#sec14.35

Ug. Why does everything in Python boil down to reading rfcs? It really
slows us non computer science types down. I'll probably spend a day on
this instead of an hour. I did search the web but had no luck finding
an example, so I posted here as a last resort.

The easy way is to use wget...
If you want a Python example, go to the Python cookbook:
http://code.activestate.com/recipes/langs/python/
enter "resume download" in the search box, and the very first recipe shows how to use the Range header.
