Heh heh heh, OK, I have to ask -- is your comment meant to be facetious, or
does that weird URL thing really seem like magic? Doing that weird URL
thing is really pretty easy, and I hope that more people will learn to use
it, because it's a great tool.
All I do is: Go to a search box, type in some words that I remember from
the old thread, in this case I think it was "blurb" and "rtl". Then I just
click on one of the messages that looks like the one I want, and click
around in the thread a bit if I have to, and then just cut & paste the URL
of the message from the browser's Location box into the new message I'm
writing. If I can find what I'm looking for quickly, it's usually about a
30-second jobber. The other funny characters at the end of the URL are just
modifiers to say things like "view compact" or "threaded indented," etc.
