Regarding your comment, I'd say no. The rules for capitalization of vertical list items for online publication are not completely established, but I go by the following: - Introduce the list with a lead-in sentence or paragraph (punctuate the lead-in with a colon) - Use sentence-style capitalization on list items - Use regular doublespacing between list items - Punctuate list items only if they are complete sentences or verb phrases that complete the sentence begun by the lead-in (and use periods in these two cases) - For lists with more than ten items, use two column divisions Hi Bob,
