nesting question

[Nirmal Govind]

Hi... is it possible to nest so that there are two environments on the
same line? For example, say I have a description of "Desc" and then in
the description, I want to start an itemize so that the first item
"Item1" would be on the same line as "Desc" .. so the output would look
like

Desc    Item1
        Item2

and not

Desc
        Item1
        Item2

How is this done?

Thanks,
nirmal
