After I sent this I saw that I should have added that it's ambiguous
and needs some formatting help, so I'm not surprised to see this:

I'm not sure. At a minimum, add another colon at the end of the line.
Or both sub-headings (this one and the one before it) might need a "::"
at the end of the line and then a blank line inserted there.

I'd have to play around with it and test some, but for now I have to do
something else...
