> What might be easier (and more readable) is if each line has a fixed
length from the beginning, you can match perhaps a little more clearly by
doing something like s/^(.{23}) (\d),/\1 0\2/

No, due to great sloppiness in the original data (and two sources), the
line lengths vary considerably, with/without commas in a few places,
variable multi-space sequences, etc.
