c# - ASP:ListBox Get Selected Items - One Liner?

Question

I am trying to get the selected items of an asp:ListBox control and put them in a comma delimited string. There has got to be a simpler way of doing this then:

foreach (ListItem listItem in lbAppGroup.Items)
{
    if (listItem.Selected == true)
    {
        Trace.Warn("Selected Item", listItem.Value);
    }
}

Is there a way to get this into one line? like my pseudo code here:

string values = myListBox.SelectedItems;

I am using ASP.NET and C# 3.5.

Thanks for any help!!

Using LINQ:

string values = String.Join(", ", lbAppGroup.Items.Cast<ListItem>()
                                                  .Where(i => i.Selected)
                                                  .Select(i => i.Value));
