Hmmm, 
   Interesting question... A table (often abused) or perhaps a UL
(definitely a lack of order going on).

All I know is that I'd rather be embed!

Check the DTD:



"%block" includes "%list" which includes OL and UL. Oddly enough, LI  
appears to be neither block nor inline...

ul and ol elements are block level

li are a special case (only containable by ul and ol), but close to
block level then inline

The question (inside the noname attachment) was if list elements are
block or inline elements and there is a great resource about that
here:

I'm a subscriber, not an element!

Maybe text-only mail helps?
