In the Gnus info file, we find the following example:

     (setq gnus-refer-article-method
           '(current
             (nnweb "refer" (nnweb-type google))))

Isn't it strange that it refers to a search at Google by the name of
"refer"?  I vaguely recall that there was once a dejanews-like
service named refer.  Or does the "refer" refer to the fact that it
is in gnus-refer-article-method?

Hm.  Maybe it's just me being confused...
