MathSource item:  0200-552: 2D Plots of Multiple Lists of Data is a newer
version of MultipleListPlot with will handle a list of lists w/o
contortions as well as provide some nice legending abililty.
Alternatively, the suggestion of
MultipleListPlot[Apply[Sequence,data]] (MultipleListPlot[Sequence @@ data])
suggested below gets the job done as well
