Bullet lists of Good and Evil

I’m working on getting out of this glass house so I can throw more stones. In the meantime, a great pet-peeve of mine is bullet lists that don’t indent properly when lines wrap.

A stupid bullet list:

• Divitias alius fuluo sibi congerat auro et teneat culti iugera multa soli,quem labor adsiduus uicino terreat hoste.
• Martia cui somnos classica pulsa fugent: me mea paupertas uita traducat inerti, dum meus adsiduo luceat igne focus.
• ipse seram teneras maturo tempore uites rusticus et facili grandia poma manu.

A smart bullet list:

  • Divitias alius fuluo sibi congerat auro et teneat culti iugera multa soli,quem labor adsiduus uicino terreat hoste.
  • Martia cui somnos classica pulsa fugent: me mea paupertas uita traducat inerti, dum meus adsiduo luceat igne focus.
  • ipse seram teneras maturo tempore uites rusticus et facili grandia poma manu.

As the principal at a local high school used to say over the PA-system: You know who you are, whoever you are!
