The subject says it all.  

I have text like this:

   blah blah blah
   % what the hell to put here?
   \begin{itemize}    
     \item xyzzy xyzzy xyzzy

How do I prevent a page break at the comment, i.e between "blah blah
blah" and \begin{itemize}.  \nopagebreak does not work, \nobreak does
not work etc.

What do I do wrong?
