Karen Kay wondered <<So what should you do if you have 11
or 12 items? I'm facing a document with this now. It really
seems like the list is too long, but each item is about two
lines, and there's really no other obvious way to include
the information.>>

What about this? On the first page of our chapters, we have a bulleted list
of the main topics (Heading 1). My procedures chapter has almost 20 bullets.
Any ideas on this?
