Is it possible to write 2 or more lists in Markdown syntax, without 
putting any other objects between them.. like:

* List item 1 of list 1
* List item 2 of list 1
* List item 3 of list 1


* List item 1 of list 2
* List item 2 of list 2
* List item 3 of list 2


I would expect the following output:
<ul>
<li>List item 1 of list 1</li>
<li>List item 2 of list 1</li>
<li>List item 3 of list 1</li>
</ul>

<ul>
<li>List item 1 of list 2</li>
<li>List item 2 of list 2</li>
<li>List item 3 of list 2</li>
</ul>


Instead, I get:
<ul>
<li>List item 1 of list 1</li>
<li>List item 2 of list 1</li>
<li><p>List item 3 of list 1</p></li>
<li><p>List item 1 of list 2</p></li>
<li>List item 2 of list 2</li>
<li>List item 3 of list 2</li>
</ul>


However, if I put some other object between them, a simple paragraph 
for example, it works fine:

* List item 1 of list 1
* List item 2 of list 1
* List item 3 of list 1

dummy divider

* List item 1 of list 2
* List item 2 of list 2
* List item 3 of list 2


... becomes...

<ul>
<li>List item 1 of list 1</li>
<li>List item 2 of list 1</li>
<li>List item 3 of list 1</li>
</ul>

<p>dummy divider</p>

<ul>
<li>List item 1 of list 2</li>
<li>List item 2 of list 2</li>
<li>List item 3 of list 2</li>
</ul>


Same goes with ordered lists.


Best regards,
Nikita
