Removing Gnome from F11

I'm happily using LXDE on my F11 system, and I thought I'd remove Gnome,
using "yum remove gnome\*".
Well, it was not to be. Yum decide to remove parts of LXDE, Firefox,
Thunderbird, Java, abiword, most of the "system" admin utilities, and
about 50 other programs that I would think have nothing to do with Gnome.
Am I stupid or what? Why would Fedora's Firefox have a Gnome dependency
when I'm sure that the Mozilla version doesn't? Are these "real"
dependencies or packaging artifacts?
I don't think I like this disto as much as I once did.
