If you look at the top of their post (the line with the pretty pictures for sending PMs etc.) the first picture (to the left of the word "Posted" looks like a piece of paper with a corner folded down (alledgedly). If you right-click on it (assuming Windows), on the pop-up menu will be "Copy Link Location" or "Copy Shortcut". This will put the keystrokes of the URL into the clipboard.
Go to the thread you are replying in and click "Add Reply", write your post as far as where you want to put the link and click the URL button. Paste (Ctrl-V or Right-Click and Paste) and the link will appear in the little box. Click the button and add the word(s) you want to be in red (for a link) and click the button again. The post will be inserted into your text (as external links are).
I'd check using Preview Post and following the link if I were you.
This will bring up a new window without the left side bar, which is the only way of linking to a post within a thread. There's a *fancy way of linking to a thread with the frame round it, but it will only take you to the top of that page.
[* You put "http://ship-of-fools.com/UBB/frameit.htm?" in front of the link you have to paste (it involves a bit of juggling with a Notepad file so you can copy the link and the text - I keep the text in a file so I can refer to it when needed)]

Pardon the intrusion. I just wanted to test a reply, and this was a long-ish quotation.
