How do I link to a specific message in a thread? For example, when someone posts a reply to this thread, how would I get a link so that post, rather than the thread, is the address?

Argh. How did I not know this!? I always click on the person's username and search through their posts for the specific one I want. This is so much faster...

Seriously, maybe there should be a how-to article for this stuff
