Thanks!!

The solution, apparently, is to add '[]' for powerdot slides:

\begin{itemize}[leftmargin=1pt,labelsep=3pt,itemsep=6pt]

becomes

\begin{itemize}[][leftmargin=1pt,labelsep=3pt,itemsep=6pt]

This worked while in a PowerDot slide but FAILS for normal LaTeX!

Why was this done and where is the "documentation" about it?

The consequence of this is that one cannot use the same code
for different presentations (eg by reading in with \input{}).

Could this be fixed?
