OK, then do:

/Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox -P default1 -no- 
remote "slashdot.org" &

This will open a new defaults window, where you can create user  
default1, and then a new instance of Firefox will run along with the  
instance already running.

There are a series of other flags, but I could not add tabs to a pre- 
existing instance...
