But hey, we now know who to blame if years from now someone runs into codes which checks for carriage return, line-feed, AND CHR(160) and can't figure out why it's been done.

Chr(160) is a "non-breaking space" -- similar to a non-breaking hyphen (it means "don't divide this phrase here" if you want to keep everything on the same line). Kind of an oddity, but I guess there might be a use for it somewhere, since they went to the trouble of inventing it.
