I think I figured how to do most of what I wish.

;; ---Begin Group parameter section, now!
(setq gnus-parameters
        ;; if all groups are total-expire, by all messages not
        ;; unread,ticked or dormant are expired. Anything I give a low
        ;;enough score to be marked read  will be expired. Will this
        ;; set it for all groups? Did I miss the "proper (heh) way to
        ;; set all to total expire?
      '((".*\\..*"
	 (total-expire . t))
        
        ;; By setting expiry-wait, I can decide how long I have an
        ;; article around. IE, here I've set the "no where else to put
        ;; this" group misc.other to 3, so I have 3 days to decide how
        ;; I want to treat mail from that sender.
	("misc\\.other*"
         (expiry-wait . 3)
        ;; I freely admit: I'm trying the example summary-line-format
        ;; from the mannual just to see how it looks. <grin>
         (gnus-summary-line-format
          "%U%R%z%I%(%[%d:%ub%-23,23f%]%) %s\n")
	
        ;; This is so that I can obsesively keep e-mails from my GF,
        ;; family, and illuminatti contact. 
	("misc\\.personal\\..*"
        ;; Set expiry wait to never: Since there's an immediate option
        ;; as well, I figured that means "process this foo NOW" and
        ;; never means "don't touch this censored, or I'll sick ARM on
        ;; you".
        ;; Or something.
         (expiry-wait . never)
         (gnus-summary-line-format
          "%U%R%z%I%(%[%d:%ub%-23,23f%]%) %s\n")
        ;; show me ALL my goodies, gran'ma.
         (display . all))

        ;;; Why, yes, I do want my mailing lists to behave
        ("list\\..*"
        ;;;give me a week, I'll help take off the weight. Cause if I
        ;; haven't gone back to it in a week, I'm likely not gonna. 
        ;; Besides, all the sane groups I'm on keep archives.
         (expiry-wait . 7)
        ;; Sigh.... why do so many admins "break" their lists?
         (broken-reply-to . t))

        ;; Slashdot daily mailers, Dailly Illuminators, words of the
        ;; day.... all daily thngs, archived elsewhere, that if I
        ;; don't read that, lose part of the point.
        ("announce\\..*"
         (expiry-wait . 1)
;; --- End elisp
