Bill Peschel’s Planet Peschel weblog has linked, not to my post about the Straight Dope Message Board’s Tolkien pastiche message thread, but to the comments following my post. Smart guy.
How does one link directly to your comments Javascript popup window, Teresa? Bill Peschel's link isn't to the comments, but to the archive version of your post - in which the comments link is at the end of the (long) original post, not up at the top as on the original main page. Good intentions on his part, but perhaps not the best way to accomplish what he intended.
As far as I know, there's no better way to do it.
You could link to the URL of the popup, like this. It will not open in another window, though.
Alan, you clever thing! What happens if you do that from a normal window?
It's a regular link, so it just loads in the same window.
