 * Compiling a post in HTML, I dropped an unordered list of links at the end,the
   same way I do anytime I write a post that references multiple sites. Standard
   format,
 *     ```
       <ul>
       <li>item</li>
       <li>item</li>
       </ul>
       ```
   
 *  with links in each item. Triple checked my code, as I always do, and hit “Save
   Draft” and “Preview”
 * What I saw were two list items, the latter of which looked like a transporter
   accident on Star Trek. It contained a link from one item, an attribution from
   another item, and totally erased the list item between them. It was terrible.
 * I pasted the html back in. Same result. Over and over, no matter how often I 
   checked, it **would. not.** post them the way the code dictated. Frustrated, 
   and at wit’s end, I finally went in and remade the link list in the Visual editor,
   which I _hate_ doing, and it worked perfectly that time.
 * It totally shouldn’t do that, should it?
