 I'd rather use <ul>. The reason is that when CSS is turned off (or not
 supported at all by the user agent), the bullets are more tolerable
 than numbers or letters. If you have a number like "1.2" inserted at
 the start of a list item content, you _don't_ want browsers to display
 "2. 1.2" when they use their default rendering; "* 1.2" isn't good
 either, but better.
