Never mind, I put nntpserver in after news method, and then both in yet 
another area besides gnus-group/.el-files.  Though one may always have to 
go to the server screen, I must attend to many more critical little-documented 
bugs, so bye.  Just keep in mind that emacs, etc. is philosophically best 
in ethics, but try to make its' scientific coherence equal its' religious 
one.
