WARNING! Do not use the previous/next buttons to find the thread when you are getting the addy. If you do, you don't get the forum thread #, you get "<previous thread #> =older" (paraphrased). If you try to post That URL, as soon as the "previous thread" get's bumped, your link will point to a different thread!!! I lost a couple of really good threads bookmarked this way....

EDIT: The best way I've found to get the thread # you want is to bump the thread. Then the addy will change to show the current thread addy instead of the "#=older" addy
