MYSQL Limit on length of insert statements?

My tired old eyes may be failing me, but the following insert
statements look correct to me, but I can't seem to get a clean insert
from a fairly large text file database into mysql. I was wondering if
maybe I'm hitting a limit on character length per line on some insert
statements that I'm trying.

Here's the error messages:

execute failed: You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual
that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to
use near
'"COMP",5,"CRAWLSP","","PUBLIC","","LAP,STONE","", "FIREPL,GREAT- at

Here's a sample of the insert statements (note: this is all on one
line -- though it may not appear that way because google news
automatically chops lines of greater than a certain length)

I see a double comma outside of quotes appearing just before the
string listed in the error message. This is a syntax error.
