Actually just print it with the date and time footers printed by the browser.

My father is really good at using my LINK postings as evidence against me 
in the Supreme Court. Although it never counts for much, but he tries hard.

Note also that just because something is on a web page, doesn't mean it's 
usable as evidence.

1.  You might become subject to copyright infringement if you print a copy 
without permission from the original author.

2.  The author might not be aware or have control over the message being 
posted on a web site and the Federal Court has already ruled that the 
author is not liable or guilty of an offence or penalty in such case.
