Uninstalling Gnome on Gentoo

Does anybody know how to uninstall all of Gnome on Gentoo? I tried it but then decided that I still didn't like it (last tried it a year ago). Now I want to get rid of it. I installed it by 'emerge gnome' but when i did 'emerge -C gnome', it is still installed. Any idea how to easily remove the whole thing without working out each package that the 'emerge gnome' thing installed?

Thanks

Don't worry, worked it out eventually:
emerge -p -C `qpkg -nc -I gnome`
