Perma-links to specific post in a thread?

When viewing a thread is there any link near each post that can be copied and pasted to take someone directly to that post when they click it?

Each post DOES have something like <a name="22052592"></a> above it, but I don't think the page links this anywhere.

You can do it manually by appending #[postnumber] to ehe end of the URL for that page of the thread, but it's not easy and it's not ideal, and stops working if for some reason the post:

http://forums.anandtech.com/messageview...did=1511119&STARTPAGE=59&enterthread=y

http://forums.anandtech.com/messageview...19&STARTPAGE=59&enterthread=y#22052592

So is there any way to permalink to a post?

 
Try adding &arctab=y on the end or work it in there somewhere, for archived threads (I see you've already got &enterthread=y in there, which is needed).
