PL/SQL LONG datatypes have a maximum length of 32760 not *62000 (ish) bytes*

>If you can guarantee that the LONG variable will always contain less
>than 62000 (ish) bytes you could use PL/SQL as you are allowed to use
>functions such as replace against PL/SQL LONG variable types, because
>they have that size limitation.
