Oh I see -- it's latex that cuts those lines off, not the org exporter.
You'll probably want to go the list route then. See this link for how to
create a custom list environment:
http://www.troubleshooters.com/linux/lyx/ownlists.htm
Then do this in org, replacing "bogus" with the name of your new environment:
#+ATTR_LATEX: :environment bogus
- this is a
- list with some
- items in it
Hope that gets you there!
Eric
