1. The amount of space between items is \itemsep+\parsep; your Local
Guide should have an errata sheet at the back that points this out.

2. You can't simply do something like

	\setlength{\itemsep}{0pt}
	\setlength{\parsep}{0pt}
	\begin{itemize}
	...

because the \begin{itemize} command contains commands that set the
values of \itemsep and \parsep (see the definitions of \@listi,
\@listii, et al.)  As the LaTeX book suggests, you must make up a new
environment using the low-level \list command as in

	\newenvironment{myitemize}{\begin{list}...}{\end{list}}

which is then utilized with

	\begin{myitemize}
	\item
	Blah blah blah ...
	...
	\end{myitemize}

The LaTeX commands you'll need to study are \newenvironment and \list.
