It's unfortunate but there should be better ways for people to repost URLs over time like this one. This seems an appropriate repost in any case considering the first didn't get its due props. It's the links that do crazy well and then somehow get reposted days later that are really annoying ;-)

I didn't know about the / approach but have used the "?" suffix "trick" a couple of times over the years when submitting things that other people put boring/inappropriate titles on that didn't catch on. I believe # will also work since AJAXified URLs need to be supported.
