Semiologic: excluding certain pages?

Hi – new to word press… having difficulty excluding certain page id’s in semilogic’s 3 column theme. Tried a couple different ways..

<?php wp_list_pages(‘title_li=<h2>Pages<h2>&exclude=71,72,73,74,69,68,67’); ?>

This tosses in a bullet before the pages heading, and I can’t seem to get rid of it no matter how I tweak the CSS

if ( function_exists(‘the_pages’) )
the_pages(‘&exclude=71,72,73,74,69,68,67’);

This code doesn’t do anything for me at all.

I must be doing something wrong… can someone point me in the right direction?
