Yes, but a extra space (or CR) adds almost 22 ms to an exchange and, well, 
those add up, don't they?  Wasn't there a thread discussing that here just 
recently?

REPLY:

A carriage return is better than nothing, but even better is just a single 
space. The carriage return with some software will cause the text to jump up a 
line just as you are trying to click on it. A space serves the same purpose of 
separating text from noise but avoids the jump.
