Thanks everyone.
cmari, the each[subtopic] was the piece I was missing I think.

Additionally, I'm trying to do what you want as well by having the 
list search for tiddlers tagged with the current tiddler's title. I 
borrowed this: 
<$list filter="[is[current]tagging[]sort[title]]">

from http://www.giffmex.org/tw5mall.htm. It gets us a bit closer by I can't 
seem to get the syntax right to merge it in with what you gave me before.
