Sorry, but that's a Nack from me.

If you look at the source code now versus the source code I started with
from Werner Dittman, you'll see that the extra blank line conveys
information about grouping of operations.

The proper 'fix' here is to use a comment at the beginning of each
grouping, instead of the extra blank line.
