Great analogy! Thanks for putting that into perspective!

I chose to add nnslashdot to my secondary selection methods and to switch my
gnus-subscribe-newsgroup-method from gnus-subscribe-zombies to
gnus-subscribe-topics. The question I have now is what happens to my new
non-nnslashdot groups? They used to show up as zombies but now I'm just not
sure. Should they show up under my Gnus topic and not in any of my other
subtopics? So far, none have shown and I don't know if that's because there
truly aren't any new ones of if because there is a problem.
Thanx!
