Sub-lists or sub-checkboxes?

Events happening in the community are now at Drupal community events on www.drupal.org.

Noob here ;)

First what is the best practice for lists that could be 10 items long, with 3-4 sublists under most of those? Should I do this in a list? or in checkboxes?

This is what I need to capture:

Heart disease(there are going to be other categories as well, like Lung Disease, etc. I am thinking of making these big categories Taxonomies)

Atrial Fibrillation
Coronary artery disease
- Angina
- Myocardial infarction
Congestive heart failure

etc.

So to recap:

Should I create Taxonomies for the large groups? Heart, Lung, Digestion, etc.

Now that I'm looking at it, I think checkboxes would be better than nested lists people are going to need to be able to check more than one choice.

So. How do I create Sub-Check Boxes or Nested Check Boxes? Can I do this with CCK?

Is this the best solution? http://drupal.org/node/845284

Hierarchical Select looks really good: http://wimleers.com/demo/hierarchical-select. Should I go that route?

Thanks for any and all advice!
