No, that's not it.  When gnus is loading, the mini-buffer lists all
the newsgroups I put in the .newsrc file.  Unfortunately, each group
listed is proceded by the text, "Mangled line".  Obviously, I've done
something right AND wrong.  ;)

I think you're probably right.

Is there a keystroke/function to bring up the above above weblink in
browser of choice?

Boy, howdy!  That's what I'm finally getting the hang of.  Before, I'd
open 2-3 sessions of emacs in xterms (frames?) and do a single thing
in each xterm.  Dired, file edit, etc.  Now, it's finally coming
together and I'm not intimidated by multiple windows in a single emacs
session and moving around from one window to the other.  w00t!
