Somehow my groups screen in Gnus got completely buggered up today. Then I
exited Gnus and tried to re-entered and I get an error:
(wrong-type-argument number-or-marker-p nil)

and so on....]
I've tried restoring from a backup the .newsrc and .newsrc.eld files
What I would really like is just to get back a working gnus. What is the
best way of just resetting at this point?
